The party has four main beliefs:- Belief in the manifest religion of Islam as the most complete of the world's religions.
- Belief in the constitution of the Islamic Republic of Iran as the foundation of societal order.

Proposed Changes to Iranian Electoral Law
In 2019, Secretary-General Mostafa Kavakebian led the Democracy Party in an effort to change the electoral system of Iran.WEB,weblink خاÙ٠اØزاب Ø¨Ù Ø±Ø§Û Ø¯ÛÙا٠عداÙت دربار٠تج٠عات اعتراض Ú©Ùد, The Democracy Party believes that the current electoral system does not secure sufficient accountability as it is difficult to determine a candidate's political position. Current Iranian politics consists of a complex system of loosely organized political factions, and it is common for candidates and members of parliament to switch factions multiple times. As a potential solution, the Democracy Party attempted to introduce legislation which would change the electoral system whereby voters would cast their ballots in favor of a political party instead of individual candidates. The Democracy Party believes this system would allow voters to know what specific party platform they are voting for, and in cases where a party fails to deliver their promise, they may be collectively punished at the ballot box. This proposal did not succeed. Secretary-General Mostafa Kavakebian believes that a democratic system without strong and organized political parties is "a joke."Support for Women's Right to be President
During the memorial service for Azam Taleghani, a firebrand Iranian politician known for her attempts to run for president, the Democracy Party's Secretary-General Mostafa Kavakebian said that "the Guardian Council has never formally revoked nor affirmed" a woman's right to be President of Iran.WEB,weblink ٠جÙس باÛد ÙاÙÙ٠جا٠ع اÙتخابات ابعاد ÙاÚÙ "رج٠سÛاسÛ" را ب٠طÙر دÙÛ٠٠شخص Ú©Ùد, Mostafa Kavakebian reiterated that the Constitution of Iran's use of the word "rajol" is often inclusive of both genders when used in the Quran. This liberal interpretation would render a translation along the lines of "personage," rather than "man." Kavakebian stated that a woman like Azam Taleghani could definitely be considered of "political personage," and he called upon the Guardian Council to clarify its official constitutional interpretation.Former and Current Alliances
