The party's main symbol consists of the black double-headed eagle found on the Albanian flag, but with white eyes, on a red background, again, found on the Albanian flag.

This background is encased in a golden outline, with a waving flag-like object of the same colour, but with bold, black letters saying, "PDSH."

At the 2006 parliamentary elections, the party increased its support, winning 7.5% of the vote and 11 seats.

After the elections the DPA entered the government coalition led by the VMRO-DPMNE.

In the 2011 parliamentary election, DPA received 5.9% of the popular vote, winning 8 seats.
