This article analyzes the incentives generated by presidential electoral systems in Bolivia. The system thatwas in place until 2005 led to the formation of coalition governments that aimed at giving the Executive themajority in Congress. However, these coalitions gradually lost the electorate confidence, and citizenssought alternative political options to major parties from the early nineties on, giving rise to a socialdissatisfaction with democracy. This, in turn, led to the resignation of Sánchez de Lozada and, later, to thetriumph of Evo Morales. The new electoral system for electing the president, included in the 2009Constitution, increases the likelihood that the elected government does not have a majority in Congress.Similar situations in the past led to political crisis and anticipation of elections. In a more favorable contextcharacterized by greater satisfaction with democracy and their parties, the challenge is to take decisionsinclusively, something unprecedented in Bolivian politics.
