 | | However, Grant Gillon (the party's leader) and John Wright, both of whom opposed the split, chose not to follow the Democrats, instead remaining with the Progressives (who were now merely the Progressive Party, rather than the Progressive Coalition). | | | The Democrats chose Stephnie de Ruyter, who had been fifth on the Progressive list, as their new leader. | | | Two years after the new name was adopted, in the 1987 elections, the Democrats lost these two seats, removing them from parliament. |
