Participation in elections

MAS debuted in the 2017 elections. In the primary, the party passed the required threshold of 551 declarations of support; however, this number was nearly halved to 287 votes in the vote. With this result, the party remained outside parliament and Henriquez indicated that he wanted to resign from politics. On April 21, 2021, Marisol Lopez-Tromp, former minister on behalf of the POR, took over the party leadership.[2] With a short list of candidates, the MAS managed to win 4,681 votes and two state seats in the 2021 general election.[3]
