Tobías Zúñiga Castro

Tobías Zúñiga Castro (February 10, 1854 – June 24, 1918) was a Costa Rican politician.

[1] He was born in San Jose, Costa Rica, on February 10, 1854.

In the election of 1905, he ran for President against Máximo Fernández Alvarado, Bernardo Soto Alfaro, Cleto González Víquez, and Ezequiel Gutiérrez Iglesias.

For the run-off election scheduled to occur in April 1906, Fernández and Soto threw their support behind him.

It seemed likely that he would win, but in March 1906, President Esquivel suspended civil liberties[2] and had him expelled from the country.
