The Democratic League of Bosniaks (Bosnian: Demokratski Savez Bošnjaka, Macedonian: Демократска лига на Бошњаците, Demokratska Liga na Bošnjacite) is a political party in the Republic of Macedonia, representative of the ethnic Bosniaks living in the Republic of Macedonia.
At the legislative elections on 15 September 2002, the party won 1 out of 120 seats as part of the Together for Macedonia alliance, led by the Social Democratic Union of Macedonia and the Liberal Democratic Party. Uncontended with the positions at the PR lists of Together for Macedonia alliance for the 2006 parliamentary election, the DLB has left this coalition and entered the coalition between ethnic Albanian parties Democratic Union for Integration and Party for Democratic Prosperity.

Famous quotes containing the words democratic and/or league:
“The debates of that great assembly are frequently vague and perplexed, seeming to be dragged rather than to march, to the intended goal. Something of this sort must, I think, always happen in public democratic assemblies.”
—Alexis de Tocqueville (1805–1859)
“I am not impressed by the Ivy League establishments. Of course they graduate the best—it’s all they’ll take, leaving to others the problem of educating the country. They will give you an education the way the banks will give you money—provided you can prove to their satisfaction that you don’t need it.”
—Peter De Vries (b. 1910)
