PRESIDENT Evo Moraless Movement Towards Socialism party (MAS) suffered a shock defeat in Bolivian capital La Paz in Sundays local government elections.

Just months after a sweeping general election win, MAS slipped up in two other provinces Santa Cruz and Tarija but won four others and is well placed to take the remaining two.

The ruling party registered victories in the provinces of Pando and Cochabamba with more than 60 per cent of the votes and in Oruro with 55 per cent of the votes. In Potosi, MAS won with 57.1 per cent.

The provinces of Beni and Chiquisaca appear to be heading for a second round on May 3, with MAS leading after Sundays vote but lacking the 10-point advantage over the second-placed candidate necessary to be declared the outright winner.

If MAS wins in a second round in the traditional opposition stronghold of Beni, it would be the first time in a decade that the province is not ruled by the right.

Vice-President Alvaro Garcia Linera blamed the defeat in La Paz on training weaknesses of local leadership, both at the departmental and municipal levels.

He praised the conduct of the elections as having been peaceful, participatory and democratic.

The MAS leader added that results nationwide reaffirmed the left-wing party as the strongest political force in the country.

Bolivias electoral authority gave preliminary figures indicating that at least 85 per cent of the more than six million registered voters participated in Sundays election.

Conservative candidate Chloe Smith (Left) and Labour candidate Jessica Asato (Right)

Conservative Chloe Smith has been the unlikely target of a socialist spoof.

Political opponents mocked her up as Citizen Smith - the young Marxist urban guerrilla attempting to emulate his hero Che Guevara.

The Norwich North candidate was accused of attempting plagiarise Labours branding, after including a Norwich Evening News letter, claiming Ms Smith seems to act more like a socialist than a Conservative in her election literature.

Left-wing website Political Scrapbook has mocked her up as Wolfie Smith, from the comedy series, outside Norwich Station.

Jessica Asato, who is standing against her for the Labour Party, claimed it was a sign of the Tories desperation in Norwich North and showed Ms Smiths double-standards, accusing her of being trying to be all things to all people.

Local people wont forget she is one of the most loyal Conservative MPs and shows unwavering support for the vicious bedroom tax, tax cuts for millionaires and the swift march of the profiteers into the NHS. If this is socialism Ill eat my hat, she said.

But Ms Smith - who said she was clearly not a socialist, but a proud Conservative, said she believed the letter had shown that her work could appeal across party lines.
