Formosa
Lawyer Gabriela Neme challenged a court decision preventing her from publishing material about Ian, an 11-year-old child under protection-system intervention, and announced an appeal. The case places the child's privacy against his mother's claims, unproven allegations and defence rights.
Santa Cruz
Claudio Vidal's government announced footwear for primary, secondary and special-education students. An editorial analysis linked the program to clientelist practices and called for structural policies, an interpretation that must be distinguished from the confirmed assistance initiative.
Santiago del Estero
Roger Nediani's administration signed Decree 227/2026 after losing the election. The budget assigns 72.53% to personnel against a 60% charter limit, but execution must be verified; claims about 700 other contracts and family favoritism remain allegations.
Jujuy
Jujuy's governor defended primaries as an electoral tool and said the UCR could discuss another suspension, but not permanent repeal. The decision rests with Congress, and no agreement has been reached among the national government, governors and legislative blocs.
Misiones
Ministers and heads of about 40 agencies will explain their allocations to provincial lawmakers. The proposal totals ARS 5.206 trillion and assigns about 63% to social investment, but still requires committee review and a floor vote.
Mendoza
Mendoza's mayor challenged reports of negotiations between the national government and northern governors over energy aid. He defended the province's place in the program and said pitting regions against one another would not resolve inequality; no pact has been confirmed.
Santa Fe
A CB Global Data poll placed the Santa Fe governor six positions above his June ranking. The provincial survey was conducted on August 10–14 with 1,080 respondents; its results measure public opinion, not voting intention.
Buenos Aires
The debate over the Super RIGI reached the point that most concerns industrial chambers and SMEs: what a major investment benefited for decades by the State leaves in the Argentine economy. Ariel Aguilar, Buenos Aires province's Undersecretary for Commercial Development and Investment Promotion, said the project has “zero requirement for local productive development.” The argument exposes a deeper discussion about the country model.
Catamarca
The ruling bloc leader and the MID deputy argued over an urban recovery program and rules against the misuse of artificial intelligence and deepfakes. Their exchange included political accusations that do not amount to a judicial finding.
National
Patricia Bullrich told the Senate that autonomous organizations must include at least one accountable natural or legal person. The change rules out companies controlled entirely by algorithms, although the final wording remains under discussion.
Autonomous City of Buenos Aires
The leader and former legislator Yamil Santoro stated that the Buenos Aires electorate prioritizes order, security, and fiscal responsibility. He downplayed the agreements for the re-election of Jorge Macri, questioned the latest electoral strategy of PRO, and did not rule out a primary against La Libertad Avanza.
Buenos Aires
Banking, productive, and technical leaders analyzed credit, land and fire management, profitability, machinery, sorghum, and the Congress Aapresid. The interventions showed different diagnoses and sectoral proposals, without forming a common program or new official decisions.
National
A survey by CB Global Data places the governor above the President in 21 of the 24 districts analyzed. Milei prevails in San Isidro, Vicente López, and Tigre, while several narrow differences should be read within the reported margin of error.
Chaco
The national representative linked the reform with sovereignty over strategic resources and stated that Chaco has some 300,000 rural hectares in foreign hands. He also questioned changes in the Central Bank and asked Peronism to discuss a program before candidates.
Mendoza
The Minister of Education supported the continuity of the provincial primaries, although he endorsed their national elimination, and admitted aspirations for the governorship. He agreed with Diego Costarelli that the electoral discussion is advanced and avoided responding to his criticisms against Luis Petri.
Neuquén
The municipal consultation has passed 50,000 votes and will remain open throughout August to complete a 90-day period. Residents may choose from eight names or suggest another, and the result will be opened before a notary public.
