As Bolivia’s ex-President Evo Morales did when remaking the judiciary in 2009, López Obrador has championed the overhaul as a way to purge the corrupt elite and boost democracy. But apathetic Bolivians voting for judges Sunday say the elections have had the opposite effect, turning their courts from neutral arbiters into political prizes.
