Democratic Force (Spanish: Fuerza Democrática) is a political party in Costa Rica.
The party was founded in 1994 by Gerardo Trejos and other new left-wing Costa Rican leaders. In the elections that year the party won 2 seats,[1] whilst its candidates in the presidential election, Miguel Zúñiga Díaz, finished third with 1.9% of the vote. In the 1998 elections it gained a seat, whilst its candidate (this time Vladimir De la Cruz De Lemos) again finished third in the presidential contest. Despite receiving 2% of the vote in 2002 it lost all three seats, whilst De la Cruz De Lemos finished seventh in the presidential election, receiving just 0.3% of the vote.
