Liberal Party of Guatemala (Previously: Coalition by the Change) was a political party in Guatemala. [2]

Contents

History

Previously the political party was denominated Coalition by the Change. It was founded under that name in 2009. With that name, the political party could not participate in the Guatemalan general elections in 2011 or in 2015. After the 2015 General Elections, the political party changed its name to Partido Liberal de Guatemala and it was registered with its new name by the Supreme Electoral Tribunal in 2017. Its leader was Andrés Ayau.

In the 2019 Guatemalan General Elections, the Partido Liberal de Guatemala tried to nominate Ricardo Méndez Ruíz for the presidency, but due to internal conflicts, the political party was left out of the 2019 Guatemalan General Elections.

Finally, the Liberal Party of Guatemala was canceled on February 15, 2021. [3] [4]
