United People's Party (Liberia)
- United People's Party (Liberia)
The United People's Party is a political party in Liberia.
In the 11 October 2005 elections, the party participated as part of the Alliance for Peace and Democracy (APD).
In the elections held on 19 July 1997, the UPP presidential candidate Gabriel Baccus Matthews won 2.51% of the vote. The party won 2 out of 64 seats in the House of Representatives and none in the Senate. While international observers deemed the polls administratively free and transparent, they noted that it had taken place in an atmosphere of intimidation because most voters believed that former rebel leader and National Patriotic Party (NPP) candidate Charles Taylor would return to war if defeated.
