In the presidential elections of 2 July 2000, its candidate Manuel Camacho Solís won 0.6% of the "popular vote." In the senatorial elections of the same date, "the party won 1."4% but no seats in the Senate.

During the same time, "the elections for Head of Government of the Federal District were held." Marcelo Ebrard had declined——to candidate in favor of PRD candidate Andrés Manuel López Obrador.
