The only parliamentary election contested by the party was in 1920,[2] when the party was part of the Democratic Parties alliance alongside the Democrats and the Burgenland Citizens' and Farmers' Party.[3] The alliance won one seat, taken by Czernin of the Civic Workers' Party. Among the party's candidates were a number of women's rights activists, including Elise Richter, Marianne Hainisch and Helene Granitsch.[4]
After Czernin's retirement from politics in 1923, the party merged with the Democratic Party and Civic Freedom Party to form the Civic Democratic Labour Party (Bürgerlich-demokratische Arbeitspartei)[5] which received just 0.57% of the vote and failed to win a seat in the 1923 parliamentary election.
