Argentina's Supreme Court suspends elections scheduled for Sunday in San Juan and Tucumán. A judicial coup with several political messages, writes Juan Carlos Larroque.
The Court's response, with lacerating mentions of "the republican virtue of discouraging the possibility of perpetuation in power," ended the trick and fell like a kick in the political liver of the ruling party, he says. "The old pillerias that everyone accepted feigning dementia no longer run as before," he adds.
