Braulio Maldonado Sández (1903 – 1990) was a Mexican politician who served as the first Governor of Baja California from 1953 until 1959. He was one of the most colorful leaders in the history of 20th-century Mexican politics.
Early life
Sández was born in San José del Cabo, Baja California Territory, Mexico in 1903 to Cruz Maldonado Zumaya and Luisa Sández Ojeda.
After Baja California earned statehood, Maldonado was chosen as the gubernatorial candidate for the Institutional Revolutionary Party (PRI). He won the ensuing election in October 1953 to become the inaugural Governor of Baja California. Maldonado officially began his term as Governor on 1 December, taking part in a ceremony in Mexicali which was attended by President Adolfo Ruiz Cortines.
