This is how the Colombian Congress was formed for the period 2022-2026

( Spanish) — The Colombian Congress begins a new legislature on July 20 with a renewed Congress that was elected on March 13.

After the legislative elections, the Congress underwent a definitive change in which the traditional parties —Liberal Party and Conservative Party— lost ground, the current ruling Democratic Center lost majorities, and the Historical Pact, a coalition of leftist parties led by President-elect Gustavo Petro, It was imposed as one of the most voted for this period, leading seats both in the Senate and in the House of Representatives.

This is how the Colombian Congress remained for this period.

Senate

For this corporation, 102 representatives are elected, chosen as follows: 100 senators elected in national constituencies; 2 for indigenous constituencies. In addition, a seat corresponds to the leader of the opposition, who is the presidential candidate who comes second in the election. In this case, it will correspond to Rodolfo Hernández, who accepted his seat in the Senate. Hernández said that he will assume “opposition as required by statute” against the government of his rival in the recent presidential elections, Gustavo Petro.
