History
Prior to the 2007 parliamentary elections the party joined the Convention of Democratic Forces alliance, alongside the Convention for Democracy and Federation, the Greens of Burkina and the Rally for Independent Forces/Party of the Youth of Burkina.[1] The alliance won three seats.
The party ran alone in the 2012 parliamentary elections, receiving just 0.04% of the vote and failing to win a seat. In 2014 it joined the pro-government Republican Front.[2]

gollark: Wait, an even better idea: *1 in 20000* views will just randomly kill your stuff with no warning.
gollark: The negatives are that anyone else can viewbomb your stuff. This is kind of obvious.
gollark: (sidenote: remove sickness already; having to constantly fear viewbombing is stupid)
gollark: I don't see why anyone would complain, though if you go around listing a bunch of growing offspring you may run into viewbombing.
