Buenos Aires
The governor is gathering mayors and officials in La Plata to set priorities for 2027. Primaries, municipal reelection, expansion beyond Buenos Aires and the deteriorated relationship with La Cámpora shape a debate aimed at turning the MDF into an autonomous structure without breaking the Peronist front.
Santa Fe
The provincial government wants eleven bills delayed since May approved before year-end and blames Socialist objections. Searches, evidence, trials in absentia and high-profile prisoners dominate negotiations in which the executive accepts drafting changes but not alterations to the core reforms.
Tucumán
The governor rejected the opposition lawsuit against Article 90 of the constitution and said he will call the senator who chaired the 2006 convention as a witness. Jaldo claims a right to one reelection; opponents seek to block his candidacy as the Peronist split moves into court.
Formosa
The Radical lawmaker criticized the Legislature for not debating her proposal to revise a code enacted during the dictatorship and challenged its use against journalists. She also predicted a ruling against unlimited re-election, although the Supreme Court has not decided and the province has until November 26 to respond.
Corrientes
The provincial convention was called for October 7 at 11:30 a.m. at Club San Martín in the capital. The agenda includes a draft prepared by an ad hoc committee, management reports and the launch of the UCR Conecta app.
National
The business conference brought more than one thousand executives from domestic and multinational companies to Mar del Plata. Participants backed fiscal balance, lower inflation and deregulation while voicing concerns about activity, employment, consumption and the continuity of rules into 2027.
Chaco
Provincial deputy Sebastián Benítez Molas explained an amendment to Article 90 of Chaco's Constitution to allow national and local elections on the same day. He also proposed front-wide primaries between March and April 2027, while saying the priority is unity and a common programme.
Santa Fe
National senator Carolina Losada is considering both re-election and heading a list for Santa Fe's Chamber of Deputies. Her closer alignment with Maximiliano Pullaro's provincial project comes as an electoral reform changes the distribution of the chamber's 50 seats and reshapes internal competition.
National
The presidential office is considering how to address a segment that consultants and politicians call “ningunismo,” or identification with no party. The debate involves the government's narrative, governors, electoral reform and internal tensions, while available estimates do not support electoral predictions.
Río Negro
The provincial ruling party is considering an early, separate election, with the governor and the mayor of Cipolletti seeking continuity in office. The candidacies have not been confirmed, while the calendar, municipal election sequence and opposition alliances remain open.
National
The governing coalition is trying to contain internal disputes and prioritize Javier Milei's 2027 presidential bid. At the same time, national leaders and governors are discussing optional primaries for uncontested lists and other variants, while differences remain among Karina Milei, Patricia Bullrich, Martín Menem and Diego Santilli.
Mendoza
The party congress failed to reform its charter or disciplinary tribunal and opened another dispute over ten members who ran outside the PJ. One faction says three-year disqualifications are final; the Kirchner wing argues that eight appeals admitted in May suspended their effects.
San Juan
Judges, lawyers and officials are debating whether council members should publish each vote and its reasons when selecting judicial shortlists. Proposals also include streamed interviews, public scores and additional assessments. Minister Laura Palma defends the collegiate process and notes that the final choice belongs to the legislature.
Buenos Aires
The national launch of Movimiento Derecho al Futuro, opposition leaders' tours and a September poll revived a strategic debate: whether bringing together rejection of Javier Milei is enough, or whether the opposition must first agree on a common programme, electoral identity and internal rules.
Misiones
A decree by the governor eliminated the honorary presidency, changed the board and placed the Health Park's administration under the Finance Ministry. At the same time, Leonardo Stelatto and Martín Cesino are promoting Unión Independiente, while Misiones awaits a new electricity-subsidy scheme.
Buenos Aires
The cabinet chief is at the center of talks to assemble a coalition between libertarians and the PRO, with an invitation to the UCR still open. No candidacy has been formalized, and the outcome depends on electoral rules, a provincial agreement and implementation across 135 municipalities.
