La Paz Court Clarifies PAN-BOL Ruling: No Automatic Candidate Registration Bolivia's political scene witnessed a significant development today with a clarification issued by La Paz's Superior Court of Justice (TDJ) regarding their recent decision in favor of PAN-BOL. The TDJ ruling, initially interpreted by some as automatically enabling candidate registration and granting legal personality to PAN-BOL, has been clarified. The court's statement emphasizes that their decision only orders the electoral body to issue a new resolution, meticulously reasoned and properly substantiated.

The electoral body is now expected to review the case and issue a new ruling based on the TDJ's clarification.
