The province of Chubut is the seventh province with the least number of voters in the country: 474 thousand people vote, which means 1.31% of the electoral roll, andIt has been governed since 2017 by Mariano Arcioni, from Chubut Somos Todos, a coalition whose majority partner is Peronism, aligned with the Frente de Todos, now Unión por la Patria at the national level.
Peronism has governed the province for 20 years. In 2003, the founder of the Chubut Somos Todos front, the Peronist Mario Das Neves, was elected governor, a position that he revalidated in 2007 and that he held again between 2015 and 2017, the year he died.
I already voted in the provincial elections of #Chubut. To the only list that denounces and confronts those who have already governed and surrender to the IMF. The only one that proposes a program of measures for the working people. pic.twitter.com/gRV3RucXj5

In a provincial election, which is announced to be polarized between Peronism and Together for Change, whoever wins, continuity in the service of companies and the IMF regime is envisioned. Against the resignation and disappointment generated by choosing between Peronism and macrismo, the left referenced in the Left Front is an option for workers, women and youth.
