Overview

• Federal electoral prosecutor Laura Roteta recommended that Karen Reichardt head La Libertad Avanza’s Buenos Aires list following José Luis Espert’s resignation.
• Judge Alejo Ramos Padilla must now issue the final ruling on the list order and on LLA’s request to reprint the Boleta Única de Papel for the province.
• Printing sources say Buenos Aires ballots are roughly 80% produced, and a full reprint is technically feasible but estimated at more than US$10 million.
• Government and party figures are debating who should cover a potential reprint, with arguments that party payment could exceed legal spending limits.
• Diego Santilli is acting as LLA’s public face in the province alongside President Javier Milei, as PRO influence grows and opposition governors in Provincias Unidas plan their next meeting in Jujuy on October 9.
