The final results of the 2024 Puerto Rico Senate election were certified on December 31, 2024, by the Puerto Rico State Commission (CEE). Summary Left-of-center parties PIP and MVC formed an electoral alliance for the 2024 elections, called the Alianza de País. They agreed to only run one candidate per Senate district to maximize their opportunities. Senate at-large The Popular Democratic Party decided to nominate four candidates instead of six candidates like they normally do, claiming that this would help them win more overall at-large seats. Although the Citizen's Victory Movement originally planned to have two at-large candidates, these being incumbent senator Rafael Bernabe Riefkohl and newcomer Alejandro Santiago Calderón, their candidacies were invalidated by the Supreme Court for not having collected the necessary endorsements required by law.
