United Democratic Party (Baltusia)

The United Democratic Party is one of two parties present in Baltusia, with the other being the Republican Party. Having representatives from all of Baltusia's five states, the party currently has a majority in both legislatures of Congress.

Founding
The UDP's formation was the result of several successful negotiations between the then-Baltusians for Change, which now makes up the Social Liberal wing of the UDP, and the Socialist Party of Baltusia. Soon afterward, other left-wing parties joined, uniting them all under a single platform. The first Party Chairperson of a united left in Baltusia was Oliver Farnsworth, who is the current President and Commander-in-Chief.

Leadership of the UDP
The party has three leadership positions, with the most power being given to the Party Chairperson, who presides over the party's national committee, which is housed in their national headquarters in the nation's capital. The party also has a Secretary which oversees day-to-day activities within the party and organizes national rallies and campaigns. The most active amount of work the Secretary conducts is managing Presidential campaigns. The third and final leadership position is the Deputy Chairperson, which as the name entails assists and regularly consults with the Party Chair. The Deputy Chairperson also oversees state branches of the party and ensure that their local headquarters operate smoothly.
