The President of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela, Nicolás Maduro Moros, on behalf of the Venezuelan people and Government, congratulates the brotherly Bolivian people for the ample and unobjectionable triumph of the Movement to Socialism (MAS) on the historic electoral day of yesterday, October 18th, 2020, while congratulating the President-elect of the Plurinational State of Bolivia, Luis Arce, and the Vice President-elect, David Choquehuanca, for the resounding victory achieved in the presidential elections. This historic victory renews the hope of the Bolivian people, who are returning to the democratic path of social justice, despite the suffering and trauma imposed over the past 12 months. The massive electoral participation reinforces the legitimacy of the process and gives a clear message of popular rejection of the fascist coup d’état executed a year ago. It has been the humble men and women, the workers, the indigenous peoples, the brave youth, who have rescued the Bolivian Homeland from the hands of neoliberal imperialism. No repressive power could impose itself on the will of a free people. Upon highlighting the heroism of the sons and daughters of Túpak Katari, Bartolina Sisa, Simón Bolívar and Antonio José de Sucre, the Government of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela makes a special recognition to the brother President Evo Morales Ayma, for his resistance capacity and strategic perseverance to guarantee the successful viability of this new and luminous stage that the Bolivian people is undertaking. As Commander Chávez stated: ¡Only the People save the People! ¡Jallalla Bolivia! Caracas, October 19th, 2020 .

Bolivia's 2020 Election: Winning Is Only the Beginning for Luis Arce and The
LSE Latin America and Caribbean Blog: Bolivia’s 2020 election: winning is only the beginning for Luis Arce and the MAS Page 1 of 3 Bolivia’s 2020 election: winning is only the beginning for Luis Arce and the MAS The new MAS government of Luis Arce will be caught between popular expectations of a return to relative prosperity, a growing ecological catastrophe tied to a declining economic model, and a range of social and ideological challenges that pit right-wing religious forces against an increasingly progressive younger generation. But even if the years ahead will show that this victory was in fact the easy part, for now Bolivians have given the world a vital lesson in democracy, writes Bret Gustafson (Washington University in St Louis). Though the official tally is still being finalised, exit polls released around midnight on Sunday 18 October suggest an overwhelming victory for the MAS party in Bolivia, just eleven months after the ouster of Evo Morales. To avoid a run-off, the MAS presidential candidate Luis Arce needed at least 40 per cent of the vote and a ten-point lead over his nearest rival, but this looked like anything but a foregone conclusion in the lead-up to the elections. Luis Arce and his MAS party achieved a sweeping victory just eleven months after Evo Morales was ousted from the presidency (flag removed, Cancillería del Ecuador, CC BY-SA 2.0) Pre-election polling and a divided opposition In the weeks and days before the vote, polling suggested that Carlos Mesa, a right-leaning historian who was briefly president in the early 2000s, stood a good chance of making it to the second round.

Bolivia 1980-1981: the Political System in Crisis
UNIVERSITY OF LONDON INSTITUTE OF LATIN AMERICAN STUDIES WORKING PAPERS Bolivia 1980-1981: the Political System in Crisis James Dunkerley Bolivia 1980-1981: the Political System in Crisis by James Dunkerley University of London Institute of Latin American Studies 31 Tavistock Square, London WC1H 9HA Editorial Committee Dr. George Philip Dr. Leslie Bethell Miss Daphne Rodger ISBN 0 901145 49 1 ISSN 0142-1875 Bolivia 1980-1981: the Political System in Crisis There can be little doubt that the Bolivian political system is in deep crisis. Over the last four years the country has witnessed no less than three elections, ten presidents and eight coups (both failed and successful). What is noteworthy, indeed remarkable, about this chaos is that it has continued through two periods of highly distinct and polarised forms of government: the 'democratic experiment1 of 1978 to July 1980 and the military regimes born of the harsh coup of 17 July 1980. For some months after the coup commentators sought explanations of the failure to establish a stable civil regime in the extreme weakness of the country's parliamentary tradition, the inepti- tude of the civilian political elite and the historical tendency of the armed forces to take direct control in periods when they possess the institutional capacity so to do. The radicalism of the coup, the clear intention of its leaders to emulate the examples of Chile (1973), Uruguay (1973) and Argentina (1976), and the manifest failure of the large political formations to win an unambiguous popular mandate for their parliamentary project were all construed as constituting a de- cisive end of an era.

The Return of Evo Morales to Bolivia
The return of Evo Morales to Bolivia In Andean culture, time falls under cycles and is represented as a circle or wheel locked in perpetual motion. The conception of space, associated with agricultural and pastoral activities, is interpreted in similar terms. On November 11, the former president Evo Morales, closed a cycle as he stepped foot on Chimoré International Airport, returning from his exile. Surrounded by half a million people, the first indigenous president in Bolivian history arrived to the same place from where he had departed exactly one year earlier. st By Francisco Méndez Prandini - December 1 , 2020 On November 9th, after Luis Arce was sworn in as the new president of Bolivia, Evo Morales crossed the border between La Quiaca and Villazón by foot. In the company of Alberto Fernández, president of Argentina, he began his trip back home. In 48 hours, he traversed more than 1100 kilometers, going through three departments. On the second day, he held 12 public events. With traditional dishes and clothes, peasants, miners and indigenous people greeted and welcomed back the man that was their president for 14 years. Along the trip, Evo visited three symbolic locations: Salar de Uyuni, the country’s main lithium reserve, where he gave a speech on the importance of its nationalization; Orinoca, his hometown; and Chimoré, where he began his political career as congressman, in 1997. The caravan was a public celebration. A woman wearing a pollera waves the Wiphala flag. By her side, a man holds the blue, white and black flag of the MAS-IPSP party.

Bolivia's October 2020 General Elections
INSIGHTi Bolivia’s October 2020 General Elections Updated October 22, 2020 On October 18, 2020, Luis Arce and the leftist Movement Toward Socialism (MAS) party won Bolivia’s presidential and legislative elections in a landslide. Arce, former finance minister in the government of President Evo Morales (2005-2019), secured a first-round victory with 54% of the vote. Held nearly one year after Morales’s November 2019 resignation following annulled October 2019 elections that were marred by allegations of fraud, the 2020 elections demonstrated voters’ continued support for the MAS. U.S. officials congratulated Arce on his victory. U.S.-Bolivian relations could be challenging, given tension in relations under Morales and the Trump Administration’s strong support for the conservative interim government. 2020 Election Results After a year of violence and polarization since Morales’s resignation, many observers questioned whether the interim government led by Jeanette Áñez, herself a presidential candidate until September, could convene free and fair elections amid the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. Although some polls suggested Arce could win in the first round, most suggested that a run-off election likely would be necessary and that the anti-MAS candidates could defeat Arce by uniting behind former president Carlos Mesa. As preelection tensions escalated, the interim government warned of “consequences” if MAS supporters protested the results. Election Day proved generally calm, and postelection violence has not occurred. In contrast to the chaos of the 2019 elections, the reconstituted Supreme Electoral Tribunal administered a process that the parties and international election observers deemed generally free and fair.

Bolivia After the 2020 General Elections. Despite the Return To
NO. 55 NOVEMBER 2020 Introduction Bolivia after the 2020 General Elections Despite the Return to Power of the MAS, a New Political Era Could Be About to Begin Claudia Zilla and Madeleyne Aguilar Andrade On 8 November Luis Arce and David Choquehuanca took office as the new president and vice-president of Bolivia, respectively. Less than a month earlier, they had won the elections in the first round with more than 55 per cent of the vote. Thus, the Move- ment towards Socialism (Movimiento al Socialismo or MAS) was returned to power and obtained an absolute majority in the parliament after a one-year interregnum follow- ing the fraudulent ballot in 2019. This outcome can be attributed not only to the desire of the people for economic and political stability as well as social peace but also to the poor performance of the transitional government of Jeanine Áñez and the oppo- sition’s fragmentation and polarizing campaign. The dethronement of Evo Morales and the current adverse conditions – not least Covid-19 – are among those factors that will make it impossible for the MAS to conduct business as usual. It was a long and extremely difficult path to the first round of the elections, Bolivians the October 2020 general elections, which for and against him had already taken to were a re-run of the annulled October 2019 the streets.
