Congress of Democrats
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Congress of Democrats is a political party in Namibia. At the last legislative elections, on 15 and 16 November 2004, the party won 7.2% of popular votes and five out of 78 seats, making it the second-largest party behind SWAPO.
The party is a consultative member of the Socialist International.[1]
In late 2007, a group led by Herbert and Ignatius Shixwameni split from the CoD to form a new party, the All People's Party.[2]
