- Partido Liberación Nacional (National
Liberation Party (PLN)) - 17
- Partido Acción Ciudadana (Citizens Action
Party (PAC)) - 14
- Partido Movimiento Libertario
(Libertarian Movement Party (PML)) - 6
- Partido Renovación Costarricense
(Costa Rica Renovation Party (PRC)) - 1
The presidential run-off election in April 2002 was won by the
PUSC candidate with 58% to the PLN's 42%.

Dov Gutterman located the website of Partido Acción
Ciudadana (Costa Rica): <www.pac.or.cr>.
On the bottom of the homepage is shown a 1:2 flag, diagonally
divided yellow-red, with the party acronym PAC, in red, placed
vertically along the hoist.
One of the picture in the image gallery shows a party meeting
<www.pac.or.cr>.
Behind the stand is hanging a 2:3 flag, diagonally divided
yellow-red, with the party acronym PAC, in black, placed
horizontally in the middle of the flag. It seems to me that the
acronym was manually added on a "plain" flag (look
especially at the weird C letter).

Same flag as at top but with other proportions appears at <www.tse.go.cr>.

Dov Gutterman has reported the flag of the Partido

with the initials of the party, is just a logo.
