Overview

  • La Libertad Avanza posted an official group portrait on X with the caption “Los candidatos para terminar de cambiar la historia de la Argentina.”
  • In the image, Javier Milei is flanked by Karina Milei and Security Minister Patricia Bullrich, with notable nominees including José Luis Espert, Alejandro Fargosi, Luis Petri, Virginia Gallardo and Agustín Pellegrini.
  • The lineup presents 32 contenders for Senate and Chamber of Deputies seats across all provinces for the October 26 midterms.
  • The rollout coincides with media reports of leaked recordings attributed to former disability agency chief Diego Spagnuolo that allegedly reference bribe payments tied to Karina Milei through Eduardo “Lule” Menem, with Chamber of Deputies president Martín Menem pictured in the front row.
  • The publication comes during recent setbacks in Congress, including Deputies rejecting the veto on the disability emergency and the Senate voting down four delegated decrees and a DNU affecting Vialidad Nacional, INTI and INTA.
