- Current members of the Bolivian Plurinational Legislative Assembly
-
The 2010–2015 Plurinational Legislative Assembly of Bolivia is the first class of the Bolivian legislature, also known as the National Congress of Bolivia, to go by that name. The Assembly is controlled in both houses by the governing Movement for Socialism (MAS-IPSP), elected with a 2/3 supermajority. Just four incumbent members of the 2005–2010 Congress returned: Deputy Antonio Franco; Deputy Javier Zabaleta (MAS-IPSP/MSM); Senator René Martínez (MAS-IPSP), who was a deputy; and Senator Róger Pinto, previously of Podemos and now representing PPB-CN.[1] As part of a break between the MAS-IPSP and its ally the Without Fear Movement (MSM), the latter party's four deputies, elected on the MAS slate pledged in late March 2010, "to act in accord with our political identity, with our conscience, and with the people who elected us with their vote." Consequently, MAS-IPSP now has 84 members in the Chambers of Deputies, while the MSM has four.[2]
Congressional elections were held as part of general elections on 9 December 2009. After the votes were counted, party strengths in Congress were as follows:
Party Votes Percentage Deputies Senators Movement for Socialism 2.943.209 64,22 88 26 Plan Progress for Bolivia – National Convergence 1.212.795 26,46 37 10 National Unity Front 258.971 5,65 3 Social Alliance 106.027 2,31 2 Social Patriotic Unity Movement 23.257 0,51 People 15.627 0,34 Peoples for Liberty and Sovereignty 12.995 0,28 Social Democratic Bolivia 9.905 0,22 Source: Comisión Nacional Electoral Contents
Senate
The latest President of the Senate, elected on 19 January 2010 and serving until her death on 26 October of that year, was Ana María Romero de Campero (MAS-IPSP, La Paz). Romero had been on medical leave since February 2010, and René Martínez (MAS-IPSP, Chuquisaca) served as interim President in her absence. Martínez was confirmed as Senate President on 1 November. Martha Poma Luque (MAS-IPSP, La Paz) was elected the same day to serve as Vice President of the Senate, the first woman de pollera to hold that office.[3] Seventeen of 36 members of the Senate are women.[4][5] The 26-member MAS-IPSP majority includes all four senators from La Paz, Oruro, and Potosí; three senators from Cochabamba and Chuquisaca; and two senators from each of Santa Cruz, Beni, Pando, and Tarija.[1]
Romero's alternate, Javier Hurtado Mercado, served as senator in her place, but resigned 15 May 2010.[6] Her seat was filled by Mary Constancia Medina Zabaleta, the alternate for Eugenio Rojas.[7]
