Claim: In the 1930 Nicaraguan parliamentary election, the Liberal Party, which was founded on 1838 and merged into Nationalist Liberal Party, obtained more seats for the Senate and Chamber of Deputies, compared to the Conservative Party.
Evidence: A parliamentary elections were held in Nicaragua for half the seats of the Deputies and 1/3 the seats of the Senators of the National Congress of Nicaragua on 2 November 1930. The two major parties, Liberal and Conservative, were the only contestants, as the Liberal Republican Party did not qualify under the terms of the electoral law.

The Liberal Party, which met shortly afterwards, likewise split into two factions. The larger, under the party name of Nationalist Liberal Party nominated Juan Bautista Sacasa; the smaller, under the party name of Liberal Republican Party nominated Luís Corea. The above notwithstanding and with his chances to run again diminished, Bartolomé Martínez, in a last effort to prevent his arch-rival Emiliano Chamorro Vargas, now a lawful candidate, from garnering the votes, had little option but to follow a suggestion from the already highly influential and soon-to-be known as "First Lady of Liberalism", Angélica Balladares de Arguello (December 19, 1872 – September 8, 1973), to form a coalition party of relative moderates, the Conservative Republicans whose novel idea was to present for the first time in the history of Nicaragua, a so-called transactional electoral ticket headed by a Conservative Carlos José Solórzano to run as president and seconded by a Liberal, Dr. Juan Bautista Sacasa for the post of vice president. He also removed all liberals from the Nicaraguan Congress. As a result, Liberals and other parties revolted all of which leading, by the middle of 1926, to the start of the so called Constitutional War of 1926-27. Liberal Republican Party(PLR)
