In the 2000 general election, Alliance for Mexico was a grouping of the Party of the Democratic Revolution, the Labor Party, the Party of the Nationalist Society, Convergence for the Democracy (founded by ex-PRI dissidents) and the Social Alliance Party (founded by precursors of the Mexican Democratic Party). Cuauhtémoc Cárdenas ran as its candidate for president of Mexico and won 17 percent of the vote. The Alliance also won 68 seats in the Chamber of Deputies and 17 seats in the Senate.
In the 2006 general election, Alliance for Mexico was a grouping of the Institutional Revolutionary Party and the Ecologist Green Party of Mexico. This alliance chose Roberto Madrazo as its candidate for president. On February 17, 2006, it extended the electoral alliance to the elections in the PAN-governed state of Querétaro, where the positions of 15 state deputies were to be elected on July 2.
