Bolivian Political Party to Sue Electoral Tribunal, Citing Rights Violations

La Paz, Bolivia – Alianza Popular, a political party in Bolivia, announced it will pursue legal action against both the Supreme Electoral Tribunal (TSE) and the Constitutional Court (CC) for alleged violations of democratic rights. The party's departmental head, Ernesto Flores, voiced strong concerns about the handling of the Movimiento al Socialismo (MAS) candidacy of Andrónico Rodríguez. "We will take legal action," Flores stated, "because only the electoral body can validate the legality of political organizations." The dispute centers on the TSE's actions regarding the MAS party and Rodríguez's eligibility. Alianza Popular contends that the TSE and CC have overstepped their authority and undermined the democratic process. The video report from Red Uno provides crucial visual evidence of Alianza Popular's press conference and their passionate arguments. The legal challenge promises to significantly impact the upcoming general elections. The outcome will be closely watched by Bolivians and international observers alike.
