English/ Español: Rubio Expresses Concern Following Bolivia’s First Round of Elections
RUBIO EXPRESSES CONCERN FOLLOWING BOLIVIA’S FIRST ROUND OF ELECTIONS
Miami, FL — U.S. Senator Marco Rubio (R-FL) today issued the following statement after serious irregularities in Bolivia’s electoral process occurred this past weekend. Earlier this week, Rubio published a video expressing his concern about the ongoing situation in Bolivia.
“Evo Morales is illegitimately holding on to power in Bolivia. What we saw this past weekend should raise serious concerns about Bolivia’s democratic future, following the unprecedented suspension of the Transmission of Preliminary Election Results (TREP) for nearly 24 hours. As stated by the Organization of American States’ (OAS) electoral observation mission, the best option for Bolivia is to conduct a second round. Democracies in the region should voice their concerns as the democratic future of our hemisphere is at stake.”
Rubio is the Chairman of the Foreign Relations Subcommittee on Western Hemisphere, Transnational Crime, Civilian Security, Democracy, Human Rights, and Global Women’s Issues.

A principios de esta semana, Rubio publicó un video expresando su preocupación por la situación actual en Bolivia.
“Evo Morales se está aferrando ilegítimamente al poder en Bolivia. Lo que vimos el pasado fin de semana debería plantear serias preocupaciones sobre el futuro democrático de Bolivia, tras la suspensión de la Transmisión de los Resultados Electorales Preliminares (TREP) por casi 24 horas. Como lo indicó la misión de observación electoral de la Organización de Estados Americanos (OEA), la mejor opción para Bolivia es realizar una segunda vuelta. Las democracias de la región deben expresar su preocupación pues el futuro democrático de nuestro hemisferio está en riesgo”.
Rubio es el presidente del Subcomité de Relaciones Exteriores para el Hemisferio Occidental, Delincuencia Transnacional, Seguridad Civil, Democracia, Derechos Humanos y Asuntos Globales de la Mujer.
