Incredibly minor political party that never elected anybody to any office. No sources are cited and no significant coverage appears to exist. Does not appear to meet WP:ORGCRIT (significant non-trivial coverage in multiple independent, reliable secondary sources.). Toa Nidhiki05 12:35, 18 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Note that this tiny, short-lived party has long been listed at De Leonism#Political parties. The page has only two sources, one is primary, something put out by this small party, and the other was published by Socialist Labor Party of America, the rival party form which some members had broken away to form this party. The claim on the page is that this party existed from 1974-2013. Proquest news archive searches with keywords produce nothing on this party, just hits on the phrase "new union party" used to describe sundry other political coalitions. a books search does somewhat better [1], "New Union Party: Founded in 1980 by defectors from the Socialist Labor Party, this DeLeonist militant democratic socialist party "advocates political and social revolution"..." (p. 117 of Political Perspectives: A Reader, Mary Hyatt, Gregory Publishing Company, Jan 1, 2002.) I continue to think that MERGING to De Leonism places this party in context, always remembering that there is no claim tha tit ever fielded a candidate or won an election.E.M.Gregory (talk) 10:46, 31 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
