Overview
- Corrientes enforces compulsory voting on August 31 with fines from $50 to $500, an entry in the civic document, three years without eligibility for public posts and one year of state‑procedure limits if the fine is unpaid.
- Exemptions in Corrientes include people over 70, judges required to keep offices open, voters over 500 km away with police certification, those with certified illness or force majeure, and designated public‑service personnel.
- For the October 26 national elections, non‑attenders must justify their absence to the electoral court within 60 days or face a $1,000–$2,000 fine, with infractor registry consequences that can restrict public procedures for a year and public employment for up to three years.
- Buenos Aires votes on September 7; those who missed prior elections can still vote but should regularize in the provincial infractors registry and pay the $500 fine, with participation open to eligible Argentines and registered resident foreigners using the traditional party ballot.
- Valid IDs include Libreta cívica, Libreta de enrolamiento, DNI libreta verde, DNI libreta celeste and DNI tarjeta, while the digital DNI and proofs of DNI in process are not accepted; voters can check padrones and polling places online by entering DNI and gender on official Junta Electoral sites.
