Milei is preparing for what will be next year’s electoral contest. It seeks to rearm its space and strengthen it with the support of the PRO, its fundamental ally to achieve victory in 2023 and with which it overcame several obstacles by approving several laws with the support of that space in Congress.
“The elections are going to be extremely important to mark the speed of reform. We did it quickly, but “We could have done it much faster,” the President explained.
In that sense, when asked if he could negotiate with the space of Mauricio Macri candidates in certain jurisdictions, Milei responded categorically: “I do not make that calculation. I flatly refuse. That is cheating the electorate. Either we go together in everything or we go separately. Traps the electorate, no. Those of us who are on the side of the ideas of freedom, we take this side.”.
The current head of the PRO came out to respond to the head of state through a tweet on his personal “X” account. “Based on what President Milei said, “Either we go together everywhere or we go separately; cheating the electorate, no,” I agree,” he said.
He then stated that “that was always my position” and added: “Put all the ideas on the table, keep our word as we did this year, be absolutely transparent with the electorate and, above all, take care of the Republic.”

This electoral experiment would imply a scenario of definitive break between the President and the PRO, in a political armed scheme where Macri fails to pierce the iron triangle that has Karina Milei and Santiago Caputo as the main vertices.
The only possibility of forming an electoral front with the PRO, admitted by the ruling party before the consultation of Scopeis that the space led by Macri is diluted with its own candidates within a ballot headed by LLA and with a majority of Milei candidates. “If they don’t accept, let them run alone and come out third,” challenges one of the ruling party’s main electoral organizers.
The City condenses tensions between LLA and the PRO
The political climate at the end of the year seems to move on two levels. On the one hand, a certain calm in official offices, perhaps due to the Christmas weather, which contrasts with the high voltage that dominated a frenetic 2024. Officials planning vacations, with a request for austerity from the President, macroeconomic stability, the extraordinary sessions that were not, the expulsion of the Senator Edgardo Kueider that is beginning to be left behind.
The internal conflicts and frictions of politics seem to have the echo chamber of City of Buenos Aireswhere unknowns prevail for next year, but with a path that will give clues for the rest of the country. Important figures appear in the ring, outlining one of the most attractive battles of the 24 that will take place next year. Especially because of climbing the bid between LLA and the PRO Both spaces may be forced to put the best on the ballot. Meanwhile, strong names also appear in the rest of the spaces that explore options, advantages and disadvantages.
