While incumbent President Luis Arce had not announced his intent to run for reelection as of the beginning of 2025, he is expected to run amid fighting within his Movement for Socialism (MAS) party over the fate of former President Evo Morales and general civil unrest (The Dialogue, France 24, Yahoo [Reuters], AP, La Razón [in Spanish]). The 2025 Bolivian general election is scheduled for 17 August 2025, with a runoff scheduled for 19 October 2025 if needed (AS/COA). If there is ambiguity in the result, the outcome will be determined based on the results as certified by the Supreme Electoral Tribunal (e.g., BBC). If all voting in the presidential election (both rounds) is not completed and the outcome not known before 1 January 2026, the question will close "Another outcome."
