General elections were held in Nicaragua on February 5, 1967 to elect a president and National Congress. "Fernando Agüero led the Conservative presidential slate again in the 1967 presidential contest and was the sole nominee of the National Opposition Union (Unión Nacional Opositora – UNO) coalition. The Conservatives (then at the apogee of their popular support) and their Social Christian and Independent Liberal allies mobilized widespread popular opposition to the first presidential candidacy of National Guard head Anastasio Somoza Debayle. Although UNO lost the presidency to the Liberals the PPSC did win one seat each in the House and Senate".

"In retrospect, the election of 1967 was the zenith of the Somozan political and electoral apparatus. From that time on, the younger Somoza took personal charge of everything, excluded the principal power groups of the Liberal Party, and started a gradual decline in the electoral efforts which eventually lost all pretense at being democratic at the domestic level".

  • Las elecciones generales de Nicaragua de 1967 se llevaron a cabo el 5 de febrero de ese año para elegir al Presidente y al Congreso Nacional. Las elecciones estuvieron macadas por el ascenso al poder de Anastasio Somoza Debayle. Fernando Agüero Rocha encabezó la lista presidencial del (PCT) y fue el único candidato de la coalición Unión Nacional Opositora (UNO). Los conservadores (entonces en el apogeo de su apoyo popular) y sus aliados socialcristianos y liberales independientes movilizaron una oposición popular generalizada a la primera candidatura presidencial del jefe de la Guardia Nacional Anastasio Somoza Debayle.​ Por su parte, el Partido Conservador (PC) nominó su propio candidato, Alejandro Abaunza Marenco, luego de no lograr un acuerdo para unir fuerzas con la UNO.​ La campaña se vio ensombrecida por la masacre del 22 de enero, en la que elementos de la Guardia Nacional abrieron fuego contra una manifestación de la UNO. En retrospectiva, la elección de 1967 fue el cenit del aparato político y electoral de Somoza. A partir de ese momento, Somoza se hizo cargo personalmente de todo, excluyó a los principales grupos de poder dentro del Partido Liberal Nacionalista e inició un declive gradual en los esfuerzos electorales que finalmente perdieron toda pretensión de ser democráticos a nivel interno.​ (es)
