Maria das Dores Meira won the local elections for the Setúbal Mayorship on the CDU lists in 2009, 2013 and 2017, despite having taken office in 2006, after the resignation of the then mayor, Carlos de Sousa.
In 2021, after reaching the term limit provided by law in Setúbal, she ran for Mayor of Almada, having been defeated, with 29.7% of the votes, by the PS candidate, Inês de Medeiros.

In August 2024, her departure from the PCP, a party in which she had been active for more than 40 years, was announced. In September 2024, Dores Meira announced that she would re-run for the Mayorship of Setúbal, as an independent in the 2025 elections.
