The party believes that the rights and freedoms of all of the people are inalienable or endowed by the Creator God and that the government's function is to protect these liberties of both the majority who elected it and minorities who did not elect it.
The DRP ran its first slate of six first time candidates for the 9 December 2015 general election. [2] All six of these DRP nominees were political candidates for the first time. [2]
