Table needed
editCan someone with expertise create a table like that found on the other Bolivian election articles? See 1979 Bolivian general election for an example. The later election tables have the ability to move to each election via a link at the top. However, this election as well as the 1964 Bolivian general election are missing this function. Andrew Z.

- I'm working on Bolivian election articles one by one and I'll get to this one eventually. This one is a bit complex because one of the contestants, Juan Pereda, appeared on the ballot twice under two different parties and I'm still asking around to figure out whether to combine each vote total or leave them separate.

- Oh that is awesome! That is the exact issue I noticed and was scared to attempt it. I guess if it is unresolvable, the template could just have basic info and the links to the next years I suppose? Andrew Z. Colvin • Talk 03:30, 11 June 2021 (UTC)
- Not unresolvable, just a matter of figuring out whether to aggregate the vote totals of both ballots or to just use the main one. I'll ask Number57 now I suppose. Krisgabwoosh (talk) 16:05, 11 June 2021 (UTC)
- @Azcolvin429: Taking Number57's suggestion, I've created an infobox with aggregated vote totals. Krisgabwoosh (talk) 15:50, 12 June 2021 (UTC)
