2023: Colorado party wins with 42.77% of the vote

In Paraguay, on May 1, 2023, the presidential election ended, following which the conservative party Colorado won with 42.77% of the vote.

She was opposed by the liberal coalition and the National Crusade Party, which won 27.53% and 22.43% of the vote, respectively, as well as a number of smaller political formations.

The day after the announcement of the election results, Payo Kubas, the leader of the National Crusade Party, said that a million votes had been "stolen from him."

Next, Kubas published a video message urging him not to allow the elected authorities to take office on August 15. Kubas was joined by Liberal leader Efrain Alegre, who initially admitted defeat.

He supported the need for a manual recount of ballots and the involvement of international experts to study the software of voting machines, which this year were first used in elections in Paraguay.

After the speech of Payo Kubas, groups of protesters took to the streets of Asuncion, the exact number of which remains unknown.

According to police, on May 3, 80 participants in unauthorized protests were detained in Asuncion. The situation in the capital remains under the control of law enforcement agencies. However, several transportation companies have decided to suspend traffic for fear of being attacked by protesters.

Newly elected President Peña condemned the speeches "against the landslide victory of his party" and called them "anarchist riots."

The past elections have become unique in their kind: for the first time in 70 years, Colorado has officially lost US support. One significant reason for this was that party representatives chose to remain neutral about the conflict between Russia and Ukraine.

In 2023, a coalition of liberals became the favorite of the American authorities. Paraguay's liberals have also secured the support of the Chinese government: the PRC is interested in removing the Paraguayan "right" from power, which, unlike other South American leaders, continue to recognize Taiwan's right to self-determination.

"Colorado" continues to enjoy wide support among the population.
