List of senators of La Paz
This list is incomplete; you can help by . (November 2021) |
La Paz is represented in the Plurinational Legislative Assembly by four senators and their respective alternates elected through proportional representation. They serve 5 year terms and qualify for reelection once. The current delegation is composed of three senators from the Movement for Socialism (MAS-IPSP) bench and one senator from the Civic Community (CC) coalition: , Felix Ajpi, Simona Quispe, and Cecilia Requena Zárate, as well as their respective alternates: Hilarión Padilla Mamani, Yolanda María Ponce Condo, Guido José Varela Mancilla, and Porfirio Ovidio Menacho Tarquino.
Even though the bicameral system was adopted in the 1831 Constitution and continued in subsequently promulgated constitutions, it can be affirmed that, with the exception of very small intervals, the Senate did not, in fact, exercise its functions until the convocation of the 1882 legislature.[1] Due to numerous political crises and military interventions since 1882, Bolivia had not experienced a continuous, uninterrupted legislative session until 1982.
