The Union Preservation Alliance (UPA), also known as the Lincoln Coalition, was an electoral alliance formed between the Democratic Party, Republican Party and Progressive Party to contest the Popular Front of the Socialist Party UCA and Democratic Socialist Party UCA during the United Commonwealth election of 1982. The Social Democratic Party UCA split into pro-UPA and pro-Popular Front factions, however the rift would be mended by the 1990 election. The foundation of the UPA and Popular Front are often called the beginning of the Sixth Party System, bringing the American system closer to many international models with shifting alliances and more parties.
