Progressive Liberal Party (Venezuela)

The Progressive Liberal Party (Spanish: Partido Liberal Progresista, abbreviated P.L.P.) was a political party in the Amazonas Federal Territory of Venezuela. The party had a loose organization and was set up ahead of the 1947 Venezuelan general elections. The PLP was close to the Democratic Republican Union (URD).[1][2] PLP won the sole parliamentary seat in the Amazonas Federal Territory in the December 1947 elections, obtaining 860 votes.[1][3][4] PLP also won the municipal election held alongside the parliamentary vote, winning 3 out of the 5 seats in the Municipal Council of the Amazonas Federal Territory.[5]
