Upon confirming partisan registration at the National Jury of Elections in 2024, the party announced the affiliation of Ajegroup businessman Carlos Añaños, signaling a potential presidential run at the 2026 general election.[2] Nevertheless, Añaños rescinded his presidential aspirations following discrepancies with the party leader Aragón on congressional candidate fielding.[3] Añaños subsequently left the party.[4]
Among its members running for the party's presidential nomination for 2026 are incumbent congressman Carlos Anderson, former minister of Energy and Mines, Rómulo Mucho, and architect Pedro Guevara.[5]
