The League of Anti-Corruption Governors (Spanish: Liga de Gobernantes Anticorrupción; LIGA) is a Colombian political movement, created in October 2019 by the former mayor of Bucaramanga, Rodolfo Hernández Suárez, and by the candidates for the 2020–2023 municipal council.[2] It was conceived as an independent civic alternative to traditional political parties and ideologies, with the purpose of reaching the presidency of the republic in the 2022 election.[3] Earlier, in the 2015 local elections, Rodolfo Hernández managed to reach the Mayor's Office of Bucaramanga through an independent candidacy via the "Movimiento Cívico Lógica Etica y Estética", previously founded by Hernández to support his political campaign.[4] In May 2022, Hernández finished in second place in the first round of the presidential elections, proceeding to the second round against Gustavo Petro. He finished in second place in the second round as well.[5][6]

The League of Anti-Corruption Governors is a populist[7], catch-all party,[8][9] which describes itself as an independent movement without a position on the political spectrum, opposed to traditional politics,[10] to corruption and to the establishment.[11] The movement's position has been described differently by various outlets, similar to founder Rodolfo Hernández Suárez, with some describing it as far-right[12][13][14], right-wing,[15] or centre-right.[16][17][18]

On the economic level, it strongly defends a pro-business neoliberal or liberal model.[19][20][21][22]

Culturally, the party claims to support the rights of LGBT people, as well as the right to abortion and any other dissent, being described as culturally liberal.[20][23][24] But when the Chamber of Representatives of Colombia has debated the decriminalization of abortion, the party's representatives have positioned themselves against this proposal,[25] earning it the title of conservative party by some political analysts.[26]

Party status

[edit]

Hernández submitted an application with the National Electoral Council (CNE) on 19 July 2022 for LIGA to be granted legal status as a political party. In the submission, Hernández emphasised his presidential ticket's second place in the presidential election and how he and Castillo had taken their respective seats in the senate and chamber of representatives reserved for the second place presidential and vice presidential candidates. He also mentioned LIGA's convention, which declared its opposition to the government of Gustavo Petro. The CNE granted legal party status to LIGA on 4 August, and Hernández became the party's president. He appointed his wife, Socorro Oliveros as national director.[27]

Igualmente, todo parecía indicar que, en esta ocasión, "el que diga Uribe" era el candidato Federico Gutiérrez, quien oficialmente estaba apoyado por el partido uribista Centro Democrático; mientras que otro de los candidatos, que "desprevenidamente" ya había manifestado afectos por Uribe, se mostraba "independiente" y "ajeno al uribismo", era avalado por un partido escoba o "atrapalotodo", denominado Liga de Gobernantes Anticorrupción, fundado en 2019 con la finalidad específica de avalar la candidatura presidencial de Rodolfo Hernández (de 77 años), terminó siendo el "as bajo la manga" de Uribe y sus seguidores, con quienes realmente, pero de manera subrepticia, hacía equipo.
