Governor Sergio Ziliotto finally obtained re-election and maintained Peronist hegemony in the district, after achieving 47 percent of the votes, while his rival from Together for Change, Martín Berhongaray was left with 40 and already conceded defeat. .
The Minister of Economy, Sergio Massa, greeted the re-elected governor Sergio Ziliotto on Twitter: “Congratulations @ZiliottoSergio dear. Working for industrial development, banking the gas pipeline as the country’s dream and advancing in production even with the drought, has a reward”.
