History

The APNU was formed in July 2011 in order to contest the

The alliance won 26 of the 65 seats in the

People's Progressive Party
(which had won 32 seats) formed the government as the leader of the largest party automatically became President.

Prior to the 2015 elections, the APNU formed a joint electoral list with the Alliance for Change. The combined list won 33 seats, allowing PNC leader David A. Granger to become President.

In 2020, after a controversial election in which the APNU, as part of the APNU/AFC coalition, sought to win through altered poll results, the APNU was defeated and saw the Justice For All Party (JFAP) and Working People's Alliance (WPA) withdraw from the alliance. This withdrawal came after there was lack of representation on their parliamentary list for the opposition.[5][6][7][8]
