Until last night, the opposition had obtained around 163 votes to reject the veto and insist on the law. That means that with 81 votes, maximum 82, the Casa Rosada could shield the second presidential veto in Congress. the first to retirees and now to universities.
Doubts among governors
Governors will have a key role, especially the Peronist Osvaldo Jaldo (Tucumán) and Marcelo Orrego (San Juan)integrated into what remains of Together for Change. They have not yet defined how their deputies will vote. Unrest reigns in the JxC league. “We voted for everything, the Bases law, the fiscal package, the DNU for retirements and even the SIDE. But they never fulfilled anything for us”they complain to the provincial leaders of the PRO, the UCR and the provincial parties.
Three weeks have passed since the allied governors met at Casa Rosada with Luis Caputo and Guillermo Francos to request corrections in the public works annex and since then they have had no news. Added to the financial suffocation of the Nation to the provinces, enhanced by the arrival of the electoral year, is the political impact of the debate over public education in the territories. “We cannot give Peronism the flag of the universities and access to public education so that they can regroup for the legislative elections,” the provincial leaders reasoned in the face of the uncertainty of the electoral set-up that will be deployed. Freedom Advances in their provinces.
In tomorrow’s vote, absences and abstentions will also be decisive. The abstentions play in favor of the opposition. They count as present deputies and thus raise the calculation base for La Libertad Avanza to get close to the third of the legislators necessary to keep the veto afloat.
Freedom Advances recalculates
The absences play in favor of the ruling party. They make it easier for him to reach the third and allow him to shield the veto with fewer deputies. It is easier to bequeath a third of 240 deputies than a third of 257 in the event that legislators from all blocs take their seats tomorrow. On September 11, when the veto on retirement mobility was voted, there were eight absences. Three were from the PRO block and the other, Franciso Morchio (Federal Meeting), who responds to Rogelio Frigerio. Nancy Ballejos (PRO) is also aligned with the governor of Entre Ríos. Ignacio Torres (Chubut) has two deputies, Jorge Ávila (EF) and Ana Clara Romero (PRO).
The Macrista bloc led by Cristian Ritondo will meet today starting at 6:00 p.m.. Mauricio Macri came out to organize the troops after Santiago Caputo’s ultimatum. The head of the yellow party yesterday held a zoom with the legislators to lower the line in favor of the veto. Neither Frigerio, nor Torres nor Jorge Macri participated. He PRO was heading towards a scenario of breakup with Javier Milei that would have implied a virtual electoral war in districts such as the City of Buenos Aires where Karina Milei does not rule out running for Patricia Bullrich next year in the event that the relationship with Macri reaches a point. of no return. Álvaro González and Héctor Baldassi They would be the only two dissident votes that would reject the veto within the PRO bloc. There are doubts about Silvia Lospenatto who has not yet revealed the meaning of his vote and may not be present at the venue tomorrow. It is also not clear how Ana Clara Romero, who responds to Nacho Torres from Chubut, will vote.
Scope He had access to the opposition vote that last night cast between 161 and 163 votes against the veto, that is, in favor of insisting on the law, ahead of the session in Deputies: 99 votes from Unión por la Patria, 27 from the UCR, 14 from the Federal Meeting, 6 from the Civic Coalition, 5 from the left front, 2 from the province of Santa Cruz, 3 from Salta, 4 missionaries, 2 from the PRO. The llegislators from Salta and Misiones belong to Federal Innovationa bloc that abstained in the vote on the veto on retirement mobility but now, given the failure to comply with the Nation’s agreement with the governors Gustavo Sáenz and Hugo Passalacquathey would vote against the veto on universities.
If the opposition’s vote ceiling against the veto of Javier Milei there are 163 votesthe ruling party would have 82 votes to protect the President’s measure. The rest will depend on absences and abstentions. And that it does not trigger, in advance, a rebellion by the governors against the Casa Rosada due to unfulfilled agreements.
Between the PRO and Libertad Avanza there are about 75 deputies in favor of the veto. They are joined by three others from Oscar Zago’s MID. Osvaldo Jaldo manages Independencia, a bloc of three legislators. Orrego de San Juan has two. And the UCR libertarian line would contribute at least three more wills. The end is open for tomorrow’s session but the final battle between the Casa Rosada and the Governors will take place within the framework of the debate over the Budget items for the electoral year.
