I want to shout from Bolivia

Today I feel indignant, sad and even ashamed. In my country Bolivia, the electoral process that was carried out in this October is of worldwide knowledge.

For that I will begin with a phrase by Simón Bolívar in his speech at the Angostura congress on February 15, 1819.

People say that; "There is no worse blind than he who does not want to see" and I dare not defend the indefensible. As a common citizen, I have observed a fraudulent electoral process and a biased electoral tribunal, we have observed innumerable and shameless ways to steal the sovereign's vote, such as: taking ballot papers before the elections during the early hours already hidden, people changing amphorae or hidden and stored in unusual places, photos taken of people changing table minutes at their convenience and messages from people demanding payment for those dirty jobs in favor of the government party.

I wonder, how is it possible for someone to cling to the power in dirty ways and regardless of what the sovereign indicates? There had already been a referendum where more than 50% of Bolivians said that the current president could not participate in the general elections of my country, but he ignored and presented himself. Now winner is proclaimed with approximately 46% of the citizen vote.

It hurts a lot the current suffering of my Bolivia. I only ask God that he can do everything, to protect all Bolivians who are currently going out to shout that my decision at the polls must be respected and we do it now !!!
Now that we can even if it costs us our lives because if we are not calm, our voices may not be heard again.

What do you think?

Thanks for reading my post.

a hug!
