The Democratic Liberal Party (Partido Demócrata Liberal in Spanish language, PDL) was a liberal Spanish political party led by Antonio Garrigues Walker, founded in 1982.[2]
History
The PLD tried to reach a coalition agreement with the Union of the Democratic Center (UCD)[3] for the general elections held in October 1982. Finally, due to the failure to reach an agreement, the PDL chosed not to present themselves to the elections.
In the autonomic and local elections of 1983 the PDL gained 1 seat in the regional parliaments of Castille and León and the Balearic Islands, along with 840 local town councillors.
The PLD joined the Democratic Reformist Party in 1984.[4]
