The Popular Assembly (Spanish: Asamblea Popular) is a socialist electoral coalition in Uruguay.

The party was founded in April 2006, as a more left-wing alternative to the Broad Front.[1] It is supported by the Revolutionary Communist Party of Uruguay, the Humanist Party of Uruguay and other left-wing groups, including several former local organisation of the Broad Left. In 2008, it gained the support of the March 26 Movement.[2]

The party's best known members include former Senator Helios Sarthou, and political activist Raúl Rodríguez. The group stood Rodriguez in the Uruguayan presidential election, 2009. He took 0.67% of the vote, while the party took 0.66% in the Parliamentary elections and did not win any seats.[3]
