National Democratic Front (Guyana)

History

Founded by Joseph Bacchus, the party first contested national elections in 1985, when it received only 156 votes and failed to win a seat.[1] In the 1992 elections it received just 68 votes and remained without parliamentary representation. In the 1997 elections it received 105 votes and again failed to win a seat.

Prior to the 2011 general elections the party joined the A Partnership for National Unity alliance.[2] The alliance subsequently won 26 of the 53 seats in the National Assembly. In the build up to the 2015 elections the alliance formed a joint electoral list with the Alliance for Change, which won the elections.

gollark: How do you have such a ridiculously large amount of money?
gollark: I mean, it's only £600 if you include the price of the SSD (I bought it back when they were £80 or so) and monitor.
gollark: Ryzen R3 1200 and GTX 1050.
