The Revolutionary Workers Party Trotskyist–Posadist (Spanish: Partido Obrero Revolucionario Trotskista Posadista, POR-TP) was a small Trotskyist political party in Bolivia.

The Revolutionary Workers Party Trotskyist–Posadist was established by a dissident group which broke away from the Revolutionary Workers' Party in 1963. [1] Led by workers' leader Carlos Flores Bedregal. [2]

In 1978 and 1979, the POR-TP took part in an electoral coalition Democratic and Popular Union backing Hernán Siles Zuazo. [3]

For the 1980 elections, the POR-TP was the component of the Democratic Revolutionary Front-New Alternative, with the OID's leader Luis Adolfo Siles Salinas as the coalition's presidential candidate. [4]

In 1985, it took part in an electoral coalition United Left backing Isaac Sandóval Rodríguez. [5]
