The leader of the party, Juan del Granado, has been mayor of La Paz since 2000. The party won mayoral elections in 2010 in both La Paz and Oruro.
MSM entered into a political alliance with the Movement for Socialism (MAS-IPSP) on September 3, 2005 in advance of the 2005 presidential election. The parties also consolidated their efforts during the 2006 election for the Constituent Assembly, in support of President Evo Morales during the 2008 recall referendum, and finally in a joint legislative slate in the 2009 general election.

—Joy Bright Hancock (18981986)
“A movement is only composed of people moving. To feel its warmth and motion around us is the end as well as the means.”
