Kary Mariscal Guzmán (born 9 March 1976) is a Bolivian schoolteacher and politician who served as a member of the Chamber of Deputies from Santa Cruz, representing circumscription 54 from 2015 to 2020.

[3][4] A longtime adherent of the Revolutionary Nationalist Movement (MNR), Mariscal took her first steps into local politics in 2010, when she contested a seat on the San Ignacio Municipal Council,[3] accompanying Lorgio Áñez as his substitute.

[5] The MNR, once dominant nationwide, had been severely debilitated by the tumultuous events of the 2003 gas conflict[6] yet still retained a modicum of popular support in some eastern regions, specifically the Chiquitania, long a bastion of liberal conservative sentiment.

[5][8] Ahead of the 2014 general election, incumbent Luis Felipe Dorado resigned his seat representing Santa Cruz's circumscription 58 to seek reelection in a different district.

[11][12] Her campaign faced efforts by the nationally ruling Movement for Socialism to pierce the region, for which it recruited Roberto Vaca as its nominee, who until then had built his own political career as a member of the same party as Mariscal's: the MNR.

Although that never came to be,[4] Mariscal's term did see the achievement of another aspiration; in 2018, the government approved a bill greenlighting the construction of a steel mill intended to process the iron ore extracted from Cerro Mutún.
