Elections in Córdoba: the national leadership of Together for Change put the magnifying glass on Córdoba
After the official closure of candidacies, the national leadership set the lens on Córdoba. Although Formosa also goes to the polls, the Mediterranean territory is the second electoral district after the Province of Buenos Aires (PBA). with a little more than 3 million votes.
Currently, Córdoba is governed by Juan Schiaretti, who yesterday formalized his presidential candidacy. In this context, he chose for the provincial contest Martin Llaryoramayor of the city of Córdoba, to try to retain power.
Llaryora’s victory would give a more than important boost to Schiaretti, who could capitalize tonight with a photo that, in the case of gaining victory, it would -practically- appear on a national chain.
In the opposite scenario, that is, that Llaryora does not manage to keep power, Schiaretti’s figure would be deflated in the face of the PASO on August 13. The provincial president tries to find the vote of the center, very similar to the bet of one of the presidentialists of the PRO, Horacio Rodríguez Larreta.
On the other hand, it is found Louis Judge y Together for Change. Three weeks ago, the senator had to drive to the city of Buenos Aires to hit the board at the national headquarters of the Radical Civic Union (UCR), venue for the meeting of the JxC presidents.
There a debate was attempted that was frustrated by the attempt to form a “Front of Fronts” in which Schiaretti would land. The main promoter of the idea was -and is- Rodríguez Larreta, with the support of all the members of JxC, except for the other presidential candidate of the PRO, Patricia Bullrich, who prevented the action from taking place through her bishop on the executive table of space, Federico Angelini.
Another of those who joined the controversial move was former President Mauricio Macri, who the day after that meeting in the Federal Capital, appeared with a Judge at the Córdoba Stock Exchange.
At night the consequences of this unsuccessful attempt to add Schiaretti will be evident: if Judge wins, Bullrich will be able to capitalize on it with a photo with the member of the Upper House. If not, Judge and Bullrich will have at hand the argument of Rodríguez Larreta’s action.
