The Supreme Tribunal of the Party of the People annulled the April 25 internal elections due to administrative inconsistencies and ordered the process repeated under stricter standards. Lista B, which had won 592 votes to 78, rejected the ruling and announced it will appeal.
Patricio Quisbert of Lista B won the Partido de la Gente (PDG) internal elections this weekend, replacing current leader Rodrigo Vattuone. Preliminary results await ratification by the party's Tribunal Supremo. Quisbert highlighted support from the base and urged strengthening membership amid low turnout.
