New Democracy (Andorra)

New Democracy (Catalan: Nova Democràcia, ND) was a political party in Andorra.[1]

History

The party was established in 1993 after political parties were legalised. In the elections that year it received 19.1% of the vote and won five seats, making it the joint second largest party in the General Council.[2] In the 1997 elections the party was reduced to two seats.[2] Thereafter it ceased to contest elections.[1] The party was given consultative membership of the Socialist International at its XXI congress in 1999.[3] Their former lead candidate Jaume Bartumeu Cassany[4] joined the Social Democratic Party.[5]
