Former Bolivian President Evo Morales has been disqualified from the country's 2025 presidential election after a ruling Friday evening by the constitutional court nullified the legality of indefinite presidential reelection.
Morales served three consecutive terms between 2006 and 2019 before being controversially removed from power and exiled following allegations of voter fraud in the October 2019 election. After returning to Bolivia in 2021 he has since mounted a political comeback, challenging incumbent President Luis Arce for the 2025 candidacy of MAS (Movement to Socialism), the party Morales founded and led until his ouster.
