Overview

  • José Luis Espert asked the Chamber of Deputies for leave through December 8 and remains protected by legislative immunity.
  • The Chamber authorized federal judge Lino Mirabelli to register and search Espert’s offices by a 215–0 vote with 3 abstentions.
  • Federal electoral judge Alejo Ramos Padilla accepted Espert’s withdrawal and ordered the natural list shift that places Karen Reichardt first, rejecting Diego Santilli as head of ticket.
  • The provincial electoral board held a hearing on LLA’s request to reprint ballots and sought Interior Ministry reports on costs, timing and logistics, with the government stating funds and a five‑day printing window are available; no decision yet.
  • U.S. records link a US$200,000 transfer to Espert and an aircraft used in 2019, the San Isidro prosecutor formally imputed him for alleged money laundering, and the Supreme Court–approved extradition of Federico “Fred” Machado is being executed with him held in Viedma.
