💨 Abstract
Bolivia held presidential and congressional elections on Sunday, after 40 years under leftist governments, amidst an economic crisis. Voters are divided between desperation for change and fear of right-wing austerity measures. Former president Evo Morales, barred from running, seeks to invalidate the results through null votes. The outcome may shift Bolivia's economic model and South America's political landscape.
