The Ecuadorian Roldosist Party (PRE) (Partido Roldosista Ecuatoriano) was a populist political party in Ecuador. The party was named after former President Jaime Roldós. It was founded after Roldós' death by his brother-in-law Abdalá Bucaram as a more leftish spin-off from the Concentration of People's Forces. [3] Bucaram was elected President in 1996 but was impeached the following year. Though Jaime Roldós's brother León Roldós is still very involved in Ecuadorian politics, he is not a member of the Roldosist Party.
At the legislative elections, 20 October 2002, the party won 15 out of 100 seats. Its candidate Jacobo Bucaram Ortiz won 11.9% of the vote in the presidential elections of the same day, coming in 6th place. At the legislative elections of October 15, 2006, the party was badly defeated, winning 6 of 100 seats in the Congress. Its presidential candidate in 1998, Álvaro Noboa, who was narrowly defeated in that election, ran as a presidential candidate in 2002, 2006 and 2009 for another party and participated unsuccessfully in a runoff both times. The Roldosist Party's own presidential candidate for the 2006 election, Fernando Rosero received less than 2% of the vote.
In 2014 the party's legal status was withdrawn by the National Electoral Council. A successor party, Fuerza Ecuador, was established in its place. [4]
