In May 2021, Arce attended the National Congress of the Socialist Party-1 (PS-1) to celebrate its fiftieth anniversary.[9] The party, defunct since 1991, was most famously led by Marcelo Quiroga Santa Cruz and, in recent years, had sought to re-establish itself as a nationally registered organization. Arce's links to the PS-1 date back to his time as a university student, when he was an active supporter of the party, even working as security for one of its national leaders. During his 2020 campaign, Arce stated that he received several supportive visits from PS-1 executives. As noted by Página Siete, the president most openly demonstrated his affinity for the party in 2021 when he appointed its leader, Eduardo Pardo, as ambassador to Cuba. Pardo's death in Cuba in February 2022 reportedly "caused deep sorrow in the circle close to Arce". Political scientist Carlos Cordero considered that though Arce is a registered member of the MAS, "nothing ties him to the party". Therefore, should the MAS refuse to renominate him for a second term, the PS-1 could be the acronym by which Arce seeks reelection. Rimmy Gonzales—departmental executive of the PS-1 in Oruro—did not rule out the possibility of inviting Arce to be the party's presidential candidate, though he also considered an alliance with the MAS feasible.[10]
