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:
“We have been educated to such a fine—or dull—point that we are incapable of enjoying something new, something different, until we are first told what it’s all about. We don’t trust our five senses; we rely on our critics and educators, all of whom are failures in the realm of creation. In short, the blind lead the blind. It’s the democratic way.”
—Henry Miller (1891–1980)
“Stereotypes fall in the face of humanity. You toodle along, thinking that all gay men wear leather after dark and should never, ever be permitted around a Little League field. And then one day your best friend from college, the one your kids adore, comes out to you.”
—Anna Quindlen (b. 1952)
