The Catholic People's Party relied on Catholic voters while the Christian Democratic Party had more freedom by targeting Independent Protestants and those within the True Path Faith, the nation's State faith.
A meeting of leaders occurred in 2014 to discuss a merged and what the party platform would resemble. The talks struggled with leaders from the Catholic People's Party wanting more pro-Catholic policies.
