Overview

• María Eugenia Vidal said her mandate ends on December 10 and that she will seek a private-sector job rather than take a new public post.
• She pledged to campaign with PRO candidates who compete against La Libertad Avanza and the kirchnerismo, citing upcoming trips to Corrientes, Santa Fe and Chubut.
• Alberto Samid responded on X with an ironic offer of a cashier job at his Morón butcher shop, a message that quickly went viral.
• Samid later withdrew the cashier proposal citing negative references and instead offered a public-facing role without access to the cash register.
• The exchange unfolded as candidate lists closed for October’s legislative elections, with Vidal noting PRO allied with LLA in ten provinces but not in fourteen, and Samid leading the Frente Patriota Federal slate for national deputy.
