Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner insisted to her inner circle that Sunday’s result did not surprise her. That he had anticipated in public the stage of thirds which was confirmed in the PASO of Sunday, August 13. Which nobody foresaw is that Peronism was going to finish third and Javier Milei at the top of the podium. Although she could say that she also anticipated it: in the same interview from three months ago, she said that the challenge of Peronism was to enter the ballot.
With the electoral map painted in libertarian purple, the vice president observed the results on Sunday from Santa Cruz and returned to the City of Buenos Aires on Monday. For the Senate of the Nation to meet? No. To analyze the scenario with the campaign manager, Edward “Wado” of Peter and his inner circle.
“The governors’ candidate scored 21 points. The same number as in 2015”was a phrase repeated by offices of the Senate, referring to the fact that Sergio Massa It obtained almost the mirror result of 8 years ago and with unified Peronism.
Beyond the initial anger, the vice president analyzed the report of her team showing the strongest ballot cuts and – above all – how was the action of each governor throughout the country.
Thirds, floors and ceilings
Cristina’s dilemma: abstain or prop up the province
What to do from now on? The paths are two. Either Cristina maintains her idea of withdrawing from the campaign as she did until PASO or begins to tour, at least, the province of Buenos Aires to prop up Axel Kicillof who came out first but by such a slim margin that no one dares to venture a victory in October.
Until now Cristina only showed herself three times during the campaign pre-STEP. He first gave a speech to justify his decision to go down to Wado, then he appeared for the inauguration of the gas pipeline and finally he was at an act of Aerolíneas Argentinas. In all three acts he was with Massa.
Con Alberto Fernandez fully run, the debate in the heart K is to know if it is time for Cristina to “go out on the field”, or if it is considered that this vote is already secured and it is Massa who has to show himself in another way. The certain thing is that the candidate is at the same time the minister of Economy, where there is no positive news to show in full campaign nor does it seem to have audacity for concrete measures.
since sunday only a 22% devaluation was reported that contributed to paralyze the activity without reference prices. This Tuesday, the INDEC published inflation above 6%, which keeps the year-on-year rate calm above 100%. Next week it is the minister and not the candidate, who must travel to the United States to sign a new agreement with the International Monetary Fund (IMF).
