This is a table of the electoral results of the Portuguese Communist Party. Despite the Party had been founded in 1921,the party experienced little time as a legal party,being forced into clandestinity after a military coup in 1926. In the following decades,Portugal was dominated by the dictatorial regime led by António Oliveira Salazar,that kept the Party illegal. Although the regime allowed elections during some periods,the Party,given its illegal status,could never legally enter the electoral process and the heavy manipulation of the electoral results never allowed a democratic candidate to win. The regime would only end in 1974,with the Carnation Revolution,that implemented broad democratic changes in the country.
