History
Unlike the rest of the FPDL, the PDG didn't join the UCD, and presented an independent candidacy (only for the electoral district of A Coruña) in the general elections of 1977,[1][2] gaining only 3,196 votes (0.71% of the vote in A Coruña province).[3]
The party lost popular support in 1977 because of its lack of support for the autonomy of Galiza, despite its original regionalism,[4] and its rejection of the constitutional process. The party finally decided to join the UCD in 1978.
