The Lovian Democratic Party (abbreviated to LDP) was a Lovian centrist moderate republican political party formed in 1980. Originally a traditional republican socialist party, it evolved into a social-liberal centrist moderately republican party by the 2000s. From 2003 through 2007, the party held seats in the Congress. It lost popularity by mid-2007 and did not elect any members into the 2008 Congress. However, one member was elected into the 2011 Provisional Congress, William Krosby, who was also the party leader. In May 2011, the party merged with the Liberal Union to form the Liberal Democratic Party, although most of the party remained the same.
