Overview

• Provincial police said two people were detained and judicial actions were opened for ‘atentado y resistencia a la autoridad’ after the brief confrontation during Karina Milei’s walk on peatonal Junín.
• La Libertad Avanza accused militants linked to Governor Gustavo Valdés of orchestrating the aggression, while the UCR denied involvement and pointed to Peronist protesters or infiltrators.
• Juan Pablo Valdés seeks to succeed his brother on Sunday and must surpass 45% of the vote, or clear 40% with a 10‑point lead, to avoid a second round in three weeks.
• Opposition figures, including the Peronist camp backing Martín Ascúa, argue polls suggest a competitive race likely headed to a runoff, contrary to the ruling alliance’s first‑round projections.
• The campaign features national actors and alliances, with Gustavo Valdés promoting the Provincias Unidas bloc as Ricardo Colombi and libertarian Lisandro Almirón vie to consolidate the anti‑officialist vote.
