¿Macri sitting in the Senate with Victoria Villarruelconverted into the center of distrust of the Casa Rosada and marginalized from the government by Javier Milei? What if it goes wrong? 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.
Internal PRO
The concrete thing is that no one in the PRO of the City of Buenos Aires shows enthusiasm for leading the ticket for national deputies but neither for the Senate.
While Patricia Bullrich advances with the electoral ambulance to pick up those disenchanted with Macrism, the PRO’s margin of alliances for the legislative elections is also limited and, if there is no agreement with LLA, it should appear alone in the next elections.
On the opposite side, in LLA, a model of ballots headed by pure candidates from the libertarian party is imposed. Both in CABA and in the province of Buenos Aires where the Casa Rosada imagines José Luis Espert heading the strip.
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 third,” challenges one of the ruling party’s main electoral organizers.
The tension is focused on the City of Buenos Aires, where LLA has just voted against the 2025 Budget, which, however, managed to be approved by Jorge Macri and his allies.
After the failure of the clean slate, the union freedom project and the support of the PRO in Congress for the DNU and Javier Milei’s vetoes, now LLA wants to keep the Federal Capital. Macri publicly reproached Milei last Thursday, at the meeting of the PRO board of directors, for the Government’s “distreatment” of his party. “If it were not for our support, we would be facing a terminal crisis,” was the warning of the former president of the Nation.
Karina Milei weapon LLA
That heartfelt message from Macri does not seem to have had an effect in Casa Rosada. This Wednesday, Karina Milei put together a mega Buenos Aires event at the Gran Rivadavia theater in Flores to bring together the entire leadership of La Libertad Avanza of the City and province of Buenos Aires. The President’s sister She will be the main speaker at a time when there is speculation about her possible candidacy for the Buenos Aires district, eventually accompanied on the ballot by spokesperson Manuel Adorni.
It would be about a declaration of political war against the PRO that would force Mauricio Macri to be a candidate for senator to defend the advance of LLA on its territory. The possible candidacy of the Secretary General of the Presidency has already received the endorsement of figures such as the Chief of Staff, Guillermo Francos, and the head of the Chamber of Deputies, Martín Menem. “She would be a great candidate, the decision is hers”coincide at the heights of libertarian space.
Added to this scenario of uncertainty ahead of the election year was the untimely intervention of the PRO in Cordova which unleashed a political quake in one of the districts where Macri has the greatest support outside the City of Buenos Aires.
