Organization
Though it contains other members, the Democratic Progressive Party makes up the majority of the Pan-Green Coalition. As such, the DPP controls much of the coalition's actions, and is kept in check by other members. The Pan-Green Coalition rarely proposes joint candidates to represent more than one of its member parties.2008 Legislative Election Performance
