Sanders Has Denounced Coup, But Biden, Warren, and Buttigieg So Far Silent on Overthrow

23. Depends on whether you think the election was stolen.

There are conflicting reports from various credible organizations. Here's a snippet from Wikipedia (emphasis mine):

On October 20, 2019, Morales won 47.1% of the vote in the first round of the 2019 Bolivian general election. The results were immediately disputed and led to widespread protests across the country. On November 9, 2019 the Organization of American States (OAS) published a preliminary report that there were "clear manipulations" including physical records with alterations and forged signatures, and evidence of wide-scale data manipulation. The next day Morales announced that fresh elections would take place.[263][264] The police joined the protests against Morales[265] and on November 10 according to The New York Times: "the commander of Bolivia's armed forces, Gen. Williams Kaliman, said the military chiefs believed he should step down to restore 'peace and stability and for the good of our Bolivia.'"[266][267] On November 12 Morales flew to Mexico and accepted asylum there.[268] Morales, along with the governments of Mexico, Cuba, Nicaragua and the Nicolás Maduro-led disputed government of Venezuela, maintain that his removal was a coup.[269][270][271][272]

A report by the Center for Economic and Policy Research (CEPR) criticized the OAS findings, claiming that the OAS "nor any other other party has demonstrated that there were widespread or systematic irregularities in the elections," and concluded that "the results... of the vote count are consistent with a final projected result of Morales winning the election outright with a more than 10 percentage point victory."[273]
