The Buenos Aires Legislature exposed the great scam and sincericide of all the blocks of the majority matches: which are willing to accept the rules of the game, manipulating the electoral calendar to favor its inmates, with all the tricks of the caste. “The Buenos Aires have to know: here they do not want to discuss how to democratize the electoral system, but how to accommodate the next election based on the interests of the majority parties, and particularly the internal of the government party. They do not have us.” This was denounced by the deputy of the Left Front, Laura Cano (PTS).
In this Monday’s session, the Chamber of Deputies voted the suspension of simultaneous and mandatory open elections (step), in an unprecedented way. First they vote, then they argue. An obscene show, full of maneuvers and speculations. “Charter elections,” defined deputy Laura Cano (PTS-FIT), since it has the sole purpose of manipulating the electoral calendar to settle the inmates of the ruling party.
Letter elections. What we are witnessing months ago in the #LegislaturaPBA It is scandalous. The suspension of the step and manipulation of the elections with the sole objective of resolving the inmates of the ruling party has just voted. Open pit trap.đź§µ pic.twitter.com/hUkYKHUBwy

The rules of the caste
This is part of the electoral reform that is to be carried out in the province of Buenos Aires, after Milei advances in its national electoral reform. The National Congress approved the single paper ticket with the excuse of saving money, although as the national reference Myriam Bregman here denounced it, doubles the expense because it promotes unfolding in all provinces. It is also antidemocratic, because it limits voters to know who is voting, since only a few (few) faces and names are seen. For example, of the 35 benches that renews the province of Buenos Aires, only 6 or 7 will be seen. In this way the Kuider, the Crexell, and their friends enter.
As a deputy of La Cámpora admitted in the session itself, “there are many who entered Peronist ballots and then all the laws voted for Milei.”
With the same excuse to save money today the step was suspended, and weeks ago, outside the legislature, Governor Axel Kicillof made the decision to unfold the elections for September 7.
As Deputy Cano denounced, this has serious consequences for the electorate. One of them is the Remove from funds and radio spaces, televisioncommunication for the dissemination of platforms and candidates. Which means that only parties that respond to the large economic groups will have the monopoly of the dissemination of their electoral proposals.
An elementary democratic right of the population is attacked to know all the proposals, and the right of the parties to disseminate them in equal conditions. But it also gives the pen to the great cereals, the great monopolies of the country, and all the defenders of wild extractivism, so that they design the programs based on their interests.
It also transcended in the press that is speculated with black and white tickets, without photos and that the collectors return, as they exist in Jujuy, Tucumán or NeuquĂ©n and that are a real scam. Far from democratizing the choice, reforms are made so that workers cannot know what they are voting. “We want them to fall apart,” asked the deputy of the left, but nobody replied.
It was a hot session. The indirects and messages on one side and the other of the internal struggles were left over. The Kicillofistas deputies responsible for those of La Cámpora to be opponents of their own block and the latter saying in relation to the deadlines asks for the Electoral Board: “We warn you that it was going to be complicated.” And raising the tone even more, the president of the block said: “They complain about the finger (referring to that of CFK) but it was the finger that put the governor where he is.”
For its part, radicalism came to say: “The internal ones are not scared, we almost live on them.” And they affirmed that they would accompany the project that arrived from the Senate, where the issue of deadlines is excluded.
Now the thread continues for the stipulated times for the presentation of candidates and lists, which the governor initially requested and that were excluded in the project that was voted today. The Electoral Board in line with Axel Kicillof already anticipated that “the times governing Law 5109 are inapplicable.”
From the Left Front they affirmed, “we maintain in a consistent and consequent way, the same position that we have had at the national level and in the CABA: we oppose that the electoral rules are changed in an electoral year, we oppose any change in the service of the different political castes and attacking democratic rights. And thus we support our conviction that on the right it must be faced now, and in the streets, and in the streets, and in the streets, and in the street
