Democrats have said their party's victories in the 2005 elections for governorships in New Jersey and Virginia offered further evidence that people support their party's agenda, while Republicans say voters in those states based their votes more on the candidates themselves and not on the parties.
Democrats hope the 2005 elections are a foreshadowing of the November 7, 2006, elections for the House, Senate, and governorships.
Civil libertarians also often support the Democratic Party because its positions on such issues as civil rights and separation of church and state are more closely aligned to their own than the positions of the Republican Party, and because the Democrats' economic agenda may be more appealing to them than that of the Libertarian Party.
The Independent Democratic Action (Acção Democrática Independente) is a political party in São Tomé and Príncipe.
After the elections Fradique de Menezes joined the new party Force for ChangeDemocraticMovement.
At the last legislative elections, 3 March 2002, the Independent Democratic Action was the main party in the Uê Kédadji alliance, that won 16.2 % of the popular vote and 8 out of 55 seats.
