- In the City of Buenos Aires, Movimiento Plural nominated Jorge Porcel Junior third on its list and Partido Integrar placed Claudio “Turco” García for a deputy seat.
- Local alliances in San Isidro and Lanús added Evely Von Brocke for Acción Vecinal and Carlos “El Loco” Enrique for Somos Buenos Aires to their council candidate slates.
