Bolivia on the Brink as Evo Morales Stirs Up Chaos

The Bolivia Government has sent a stern warning to the Organization of American States (OAS). No longer can we stand idly by while Evo Morales and his radical followers threaten the very foundation of our democracy, insisting on running for President yet again! The security of our nation is at stake as the hotbed of political tensions and unrelenting violence looms over our presidential elections set for August 17.

In a bold move from OAS headquarters, Chancellor Celinda Sosa voiced deep concerns. “This country is living through a troubling time,” she boldly stated, as Morales and his cohorts sow chaos and disrupt our sacred right to vote freely and in peace.

The devastating aftermath of the recent blockades on our main roads is undeniable, stretching on for fifteen agonizing days. With a grim tally of six lives lost—four of which were brave police officers and two innocent civilians—over 200 wounded, and staggering economic losses, the toll is simply too high. The government of President Luis Arce has pinpointed Morales as the main instigator, even as he shamelessly lacks a political party or meets the constitutional requirements to run!

Evo Morales: A Threat to Democracy!

The Plurinational Constitutional Court of Bolivia (TCP) has ruled—Morales cannot apply again! Our cherished Political Constitution allows only either continuous or discontinuous re-election, making his candidacy nothing short of an affront to the very fabric of our democracy. Yet, the ex-president remains defiantly in the game, claiming, “My candidacy is not yet closed.”

Morales’ alarmingly loyal followers are now warning that they’ll disrupt elections if he doesn’t appear on the ballot, stating ominously, “Without Evo, there will be no elections.” Wilma Alanoca, a candidate for vice-presidency, is using buzzwords like *politically outlaw* to whip up support for Morales, who is clearly out of bounds.

In a blatant display of bravado, Morales is daring his opponents: “Let’s see if they endure.” This statement echoes loudly among those gunning for his downfall. Exemplary candidates like Jorge Quiroga, Manfred Reyes Villa, and Samuel Doria Medina have made it clear—they will invoke the apprehension order against Morales concerning his alleged felonies, including trafficking minors, in tandem with others tied to the recent blockades.

OAS — The Only Hope for Election Integrity?

In light of this turmoil, Bolivia has formally requested that the OAS dispatch an electoral observation mission. We cannot allow a repeat of the 2019 crisis when Morales resigned amidst widespread accusations of electoral fraud. The voice of the people must be protected at all costs—our democracy demands it!
