Its candidate at the presidential elections, Samuel Jorge Doria Medina Auza, won 7.8 % of the popular vote. In the 2009 elections, Samuel Doria Medina ran again and won 5.65% of the vote. The party won 3 seats in the Chamber of Deputies but none in the Senate. It seeks to position itself as a moderate third force in Bolivian politics. [1]

At municipal level, it obtained representation in La Paz, El Alto, Cochabamba (where it narrowly failed to win the mayorship but is the equal largest party in the city council) and Oruro.
