In the 2015, he ran again for governor of La Paz, this time on behalf of the Sovereignty and Freedom party (Spanish: Soberanía y Libertad; SOL.bo) founded by La Paz's mayor, Luis Revilla.^[4] He won the March 29 elections with 52% of the vote, far ahead of rival candidate Felipa Huanca of the MAS-IPSP,^[5] becoming SOL.bo's highest elected official.
