The Alliance Lepep was formed in 2014 by former president and prime minister of Mauritius, Sir Anerood Jugnauth in preparation for the 2014 Mauritian general election, which was held on 10 December 2014.

The main political parties which formed part of the coalition were:

Militant Socialist Movement (MSM) - 40 candidates - led by Anerood Jugnauth
Parti Mauricien Social Démocrate (PMSD) - 13 candidates - led by Xavier-Luc Duval
Muvman Liberater (ML) - 7 candidates - led by Ivan Collendavelloo

During the electoral campaign Alliance Lepep nominated scientist Ameenah Gurib-Fakim as the proposed President of Mauritius.

A popular slogan of this coalition was Viré Mam, meaning "Friend, it's time to change sides". The alliance won 47 of the 62 elected seats in the National Assembly, allowing it to form government. The Militant Socialist Movement elected 33 candidates whilst the Parti Mauricien Social Démocrate and Muvman Liberater each elected seven candidates. Out of the seven allocated best loser seats, all four allocated to the alliance was taken by the PMSD, bringing the party's total to eleven seats.

Candidate names highlighted in green indicate elected candidates, yellow indicates that the candidate was elected via the best loser provisions and red unsuccessful candidates neither elected nor chosen for the best loser seats.

This coalition adopted the name Alliance Morisien and was made up of MSM and ML at the November 2019 general elections. The 60 candidates were:

The alliance was reformed once again under the name Alliance Lepep and the presentation of the candidates were revealed on 16 October 2016. A total of 60 candidates were fielded in the election, with 10 female candidates in total. Each party under the alliance were allocated seats: the MSM with 40 candidates, PMSD with 10 candidates, Muvman Liberater with four candidates, Muvman Patriot Morisien with three candidates and Plateforme Militante with two candidates.

In the aftermath of the election, the alliance lost the 42 seats (38 elected and 4 Best Losers) which it held from the 2019 general election, and only secured 2 nominated Best Loser seats in the National assembly. Joe Lesjongard from the Militant Socialist Movement, who eventually became Leader of the Opposition, and Adrien Duval from the PMSD were elected as best losers.
