A un mes de las elecciones, el Gobierno encara el tramo final de la campaña. 

Overview

  • Following a New York trip and a reported US$20 billion swap that cooled the dollar, the presidency accelerates a tour starting Monday with a rally in Ushuaia to boost La Libertad Avanza’s Senate ticket.
  • A national RDT survey places Milei at 51.5% disapproval versus 34% approval, with declines measured between September 10 and 15.
  • In Buenos Aires province, Tendencias reports a 58% negative image for the president and 73.7% disapproval for Karina Milei, while FP’s Jorge Taiana leads LLA’s José Luis Espert 49.4% to 32.3%.
  • To signal governability sought by Washington, the government is reconvening the Council of Mayo and showcasing outreach such as a new photo with Mauricio Macri.
  • City of Buenos Aires polling shows competitive races, with Patricia Bullrich at 34.2% for Senate and LLA’s Alejandro Fargosi leading the Deputies race at 22.3% in a fragmented field.
