Read the full account
On 31 March 2025 Evo Morales assumed the presidency of EVO Pueblo, a new party vehicle after the November 2024 TCP took the MAS acronym. Extra-party attempts including Pan-Bol were later blocked by TSE. A statutory-rape investigation and 2026 protest warrants sit as neighbouring allegation and protest weather. They are not a completed conviction.
Context
He was already barred on term limits. Luis Arce remained the live sitting-then-former president. He did not sit as a TSE registrar.
14 November 2024 TCP is parent. 17 August 2025 first round is a later neighbour on Arce’s page. Keep Morales assumes the presidency of EVO Pueblo as a parallel party vehicle on 2025-03-31 separate from neighbouring 21 February 2016 referendum, 28 November 2017 TCP 0084/2017, 10 November 2019 resignation, 14 November 2024 TCP MAS resolution, and 31 March 2025 EVO Pueblo.
The president of Bolivia was head of state, head of government, and commander-in-chief until November 2019. A living former president can convene a party congress and call blockades. He does not sit as a TCP magistrate, a TSE precinct printer, or an OAS auditor.
Why it matters
The path is parallel MAS: a completed extra-party vehicle after losing the acronym.

What the sources establish
Wikipedia records the office as incumbent from that date.
Órgano Electoral Plurinacional of Bolivia carries the official instrument or communique. Reuters records the same dated act independently.
Established: He assumed EVO Pueblo’s presidency on 31 March 2025 after the TCP MAS resolution; TSE later blocked extra-party candidacy routes.
Not established: A unique later blockade integer, or a completed statutory-rape conviction from this founding day.
TSE registers parties. TCP had already barred the MAS ticket for him.. A later repeal, court stay, or successor order would be a different Fact with a different date. That pair identifies Morales assumes the presidency of EVO Pueblo as a parallel party vehicle, not a later speech about Morales assumes the presidency of EVO Pueblo as a parallel party vehicle.
Co-authors and later implementers named in Context remain on the file. If a later repeal, stay, or successor instrument exists, it needs its own date and its own row. The contribution described on this Person row is limited to He founded and chaired. TSE registers parties. That limit is the alternative to treating office-holding as authorship of every later series.
