Democratic Progressive Party merges with the ISDP; Could the ISDP go from kingmaker to major party status soon?

May 17th, 5727

Ever since the Custodian Crisis ended, and Xsampa began returning to a sense of normality, the two black sheep of Xsampan politics found themselves getting along increasingly well. The reformist minded Independent Social Democratic Party, responsible for Xsampa joining the Altéa Accords, and largely being the most right wing party in Xsampa (by Xsampan standards), and the Democratic Progressive Party, known for cutting the Dovani Development Fund in the 5540s and crumbling into irrelevancy. However, the two party's have found themselves cooperating a lot lately, most especially at the grassroots level as both parties entered an electoral pact for the 5725 elections, and frequently have cooperated in rallies and endorsing candidates.

This week however, that cooperate finally culminated in the DPP holding it's final Party Congress, as the Democratic Progressive Party voted in a firm majority to formally join the ISDP. Socialist Modernism will find a place in the internal dynamics of the ISDP it seems. So, what does this mean? Well, for starters, all Assemblymembers in PAX belonging to the DPP will be folded into the ISDP (given the lack of any recalls, it's safe to say that the communities they represent are supportive of this measure). Beyond PAX however, the DPP Youth League, the Progressive Youth of Xsampa, will be folded into the Young Social Democrats. 

With the DPP joining the ISDP, it has begged the question of if the ISDP can move from minor party status, and go from being a kingmaker in coalition politics to being a major party, akin to the Communist Party of Xsampa and the Xsampa Improvement Party. While the DPP joining has only fielded two additional seats to the ISDP, and the Democratic Progressive voter base wasn't big to begin with, this is essentially a unification of the reformist right voter bloc in Xsampa. And if the ISDP can turn this into something bigger and become a major party, then they can find themselves with a chance to win Premiership once again (this time without the extraordinary circumstances that we saw in 5624). Whatever the case, the ISDP has welcomed the DPP into the party.
