Established in 1990, it was first led by András Ágoston and then by Sándor Páll until his death in 2010. As of 2021 it is led by Áron Csonka. The party's headquarters are in Bečej. It was the first party of the Hungarian minority in Serbia, and it had MPs in several compositions of the National Assembly of Serbia during the 1990s. However, the Alliance of Vojvodina Hungarians took the primate among Hungarian voters in 1997, and VMDK has seen only sporadic participation in the National Assembly and the Parliament of Vojvodina since. It was a part of the United for the Victory of Serbia coalition in the 2022 general election, but it did not win any seats.
