The Province of Buenos Aires opens the door to the return of indefinite elections for mayors

The head of Advisors of the province of Buenos Aires, Carlos Biancoopened the door to the possibility of modifying the law that limits the re-elections of communal leaders to two termslegislators, councilors and school counselors in the Buenos Aires territory

Current regulations restrict positions to two consecutive terms and, to run again, a period must pass. Law 14,836 was approved in 2016, during the administration of Maria Eugenia Vidalpromoted by the then governor with the support of Sergio Massa.

However, now White maintained that “we must make a reinterpretation of the law“and he announced that”There are several arguments to review and probably progress in the Legislature“, he said in dialogue with FM La Patriada. In any case, he clarified that to move forward with this proposal they need to have the support of the opposition.

Indefinite re-elections in the Province: what the mayors think

I am not against indefinite re-electionsI am in favor of what the people vote sovereignly, if there is a leader who gave an excellent mandate has the right to be re-elected. It is a personal opinion, said Bianco, an official close to Governor Axel Kicillof.

The mayor of Ensenada, Mario Seccoreferred to the possible modification of the regulations and considered that the current legislation is “a judicial nonsense” and pointed out that it takes people for “stupid.”

“Who is the owner to limit? Mauricio Macri He could also have been re-elected and, however, he was fired. Do you know how many mayors could have been re-elected and were fired? A lot. ¿People are so stupid that they have to be conditioned.“, questioned the Peronist leader.

For his part, mayor of Roque Perez, Juan Carlos Gasparinisupported his counterpart from the Frente de Todos and pointed out that “when someone is re-elected it is for a reason,” he said in statements to Radio Provincia.

In contrast, Ramon Lanusmayor of San Isidroconsidered that the proposal is “worrying” by arguing that “it is a clear sign that politics continues to look at its interests and that it is totally far from what worries people.”

“In my experience as mayor, which I have only been there for almost a year, I can assure that the work is of immense intensity and vocation, and that That intensity can hardly be sustained for 20 years.unless you lower it and become a worse mayor. That’s why, I am convinced that a six-year-old model or two four-year-olds is more than fine“, he said in radio statements.
