We Are All Chuquisaca

We Are All Chuquisaca (Spanish: Chuquisaca Somos Todos) was an electoral alliance in the 4 April 2010 elections in Cochabamba department, Bolivia. Its candidate for Governor of Chuquisaca, Jhon Cava, former president of the Chuquisaca Civic Committee, placed second with 35.5% of the vote. His candidacy was backed by: the Nationalist Revolutionary Movement (MNR), National Unity Front (UN), and Social Alliance political parties as well as the following citizen groupings: Movimiento 25 de Mayo (M-25), Movimiento Poder Ciudadano (MPC), Adelante Vecinos (AV), Chuquisaca Somos Todos (CST), Acción Regional (AR) and Gente.^[1]

We Are All Chuquisaca is thus also a registered citizen grouping under whose name the alliance's campaign was conducted. The alliance won 4 of the 21 seats in Chuquisaca's Departmental Legislative Assembly. The organization's president is Claudia Torres.^[2] It did not have a candidate for the Mayor of Sucre to avoid dividing the vote for Jaime Barrón, who was elected mayor. However, it intends to contest the 2011 election to replace Barrón, who resigned under indictment.^[2]

Following the elections, Jhon Cava headed a process to register a new political party called Alliance for Chuquisaca (Spanish: Alianza Por Chuquisaca, APCH) which includes Nationalist Revolutionary Movement (MNR), National Unity Front (UN), and the Citizen Power Movement (Spanish: Movimiento Poder Ciudadano MPC).^[3]
