The electoral campaign started discussing local issues with the famous “smell of Pis” de Larreta, the fantasy line F of the sub -nennate subway, and Santoro talking about imitating the Cordoba Peronism. In fact, the unfolding of the elections and their privatization to make a custom campaign and taste of the main lists of the traditional parties, was approved last year by all the blocks except for the Left Front (FIT-U).
But the last weeks the election “nationalized.” In the case of Adorni with the entire national state apparatus, President Javier Milei and all the ministers campaigning, as well as Mauricio Macri walking through the television channels with thepennato that still suffered a great defeat. A national tendency was also expressed that was seen in the four provincial elections last Sunday that was absenteeism. This, within the framework of the concerns of a population that suffers the low wages and the precariousness of life, outside the agenda of traditional politics. The failure of the two political coalitions that were defeated today, pro-Radicals and Peronism, are recently begins to see the responsibility of the current national government.
Freedom progresses is in the first place but the vast majority of Buenos Aires did not vote. The true winner was absenteeism. Even other electoral options that have been a population tool to express a tiredness or political rejection of traditional government parties such as blank or challenge votes were not the option of this day, resulting in 1.9 % and 0.1 % respectively. However, As Bonfante raised in the FIT bunker, we must not passively see what the apathy or lack of political representation means, but to go to the debate and therefore, the political dispute, by an agenda of the working class and the youth.
Today, the Left Front is one of the five forces that conquers legislative representation, among the seventeen that were presented.
But what do these elections leave? Is the apathy that was also demonstrated last week repeated?

It was a campaign full of maneuvers, fake news, and above all inequality in the conditions under which each candidate could spread their ideas and proposals. They had hours and hours of air and streamings who They didn’t even pass the 3 % floor To enter the legislature, as is the case of the tuna gathere Ramiro Marra, Yamil Santoro, or Lucille “Lula” Levy of the UCR. In the case of the radical evolution, the high difference between the votes conquered by their university political space (purple/new space strip) and the Buenos Aires election, is part of that reflection that is worth doing between those who disguise themselves in a place like the UBA even if they direct the rector and the majority of the faculties applying the adjustment of the current government and the previous The city. In addition, it is worth remembering that the radicals have been governing the city almost 20 years ago with the PRO. The commitment to youth renovation as a positive value in itself did not reach, because as Luca said in his famous theme “The old vinegars”, conservative or reactionary thinking can be in people of any age.
Instead, The Left and Workers Front entered with Vanina Biasi among the 5 lists that exceeded the floor, obtaining a bench, and with the emergence of an outstanding figure such as Luca Bonfantewhich received countless messages of sympathy, campaigning with very low resources and almost no invitations in the mass media. An important OFF journalist stated that “no candidate who took second place in the list became as known as the young student reference.”
According to Ibope, Moreno and Levy data occupied 73% of the stream space of the last month. Marra so much and gets less than the fit. pic.twitter.com/sFzouzGfTx

In part it was what was denounced from the FIT-U: the internal of the right is its dispute of power that ends when they all vote together the main laws of the city, as well as in the National Congress and other provincial legislatures. In the case of Peronism, they took care of hiding who entered down from Santoro, one more way of trying to cover who are the ones that once arrive at their bench, contribute the votes that the right needs.
In the local Parliament, the configuration that will begin in December of this year raises a new question: how will the system of alliances that will have to reach the yellow will have. At that time, the Buenos Aires Legislature will be made up of set, that is, the 60 benches, as follows: 20 of Peronism, 13 Legislators of Freedom advances, 10 of the PRO, 3 of Larreta, 5 of Evolution/UCR, 1 of the Civic Coalition, 2 of the Left Front and 6 of minor spaces. Thus, to get simple majority regulations that imply 30 votes, without lla or Peronism, the pro is disabled to approve its laws because only gathering the ex together for the change, reaches 25 votes. The same will also happen in the cases that need two thirds, that is 40 votes. For example, as with the modifications of norms on the urban code, among others.
The payroll will be:
– LLA: Who will enter will be Manuel Adorni; Solayo Solana; Nicolás Pakgojz: Andrea Fregguia; Leonardo Seifert, Diego Vartabedian, Juan I Fernandez and will renew their benches Juan Pablo Arena; Lucía Montenegro; Rebeca Fleitas; Marina Kienast, will remain in their current mandate Silvia Imas and María del Pilar Ramirez.

-Let let’s go again: Horacio Rodriguez Larreta, Guadalupe Tagliaferri, Emmanuel Ferrario.
-Evolution/UCR: Without the candidate of the Purple Strip “Lula Levy” that was left outside, they remain until 2027 and the current legislators Aldana Belén Crucitta, Guillermo Suárez, Francisco Loupias, María Fernanda Mollard and Manuela Thurte.

-Peurge: Sebastián Negata and Graciela Ocaña until 2027. Sector allied to the Pro for the sanction of laws and that in the election this Sunday participated within the list of the former head of Government Larreta.
-Republican Liberal Compromise: Pablo Alejandro Donati until 2027.
-Eugenio Casielles, Former Federal Consensus, Ex La Libertad Avanza, current partner of Ramiro Marra.
During the month and a half of the campaign, two types of oppositions were discussed: the one on the right against Kirchnerism and the PRO against Lla and Kirchnerism; And Santoro who chose to say that to build a strong opposition against “the cruelty” of macrismo and libertarians, we must make a commitment to Cordoba Peronism, which in fact implies weaving alliances with sectors of another political stick but with a tight program and that currently, represents unity with sectors of the governors to give governance to Milei. As a counterpart, the PTS in the Left Front will put its forces and energies in the construction of a political and social force rooted in the unions, the student movement, the movements of human rights, of feminisms, sexual diversity and the socio -environmental movement, which has expression in the struggles to come as well as in the electoral field that remains in this year.
