In elections, the DNP worked together with the German National Socialist Workers' Party (DNSAP). Both parties were outlawed in 1933. A faction of the DNP then entered the Sudetendeutsche Heimatfront of Konrad Henlein.
The main party newspaper was the Nordböhmisches Tagblatt (North Bohemian Daily) published in Děčín.[1]
