The Rally for the Support of Democracy and Development (French: Rassemblement pour le soutien de la démocratie et du développement) is a political party in Togo. Its national president is Harry Olympio.
In the parliamentary election held on 27 October 2002, the RSDD won 3 out of 81 seats. The party led the first protests against the succession of President Gnassingbé Eyadéma by his son Faure Gnassingbé in February 2005.[1] It supported Harry Olympio in the presidential election of 24 April 2005, but he withdrew shortly before the election; he nevertheless won 0.55% of the vote.
