In 2015, the impact of the triumph of Cambiemos at the national level, perhaps overshadowed an important political fact.
That year, there was a
massive renovation
in the governorates.
In part, because those who were in charge of many provinces
no longer had the possibility of re-election
.
There were new efforts, for example, in the seven largest districts of the country: the two Buenos Aires, Córdoba, Santa Fe, Mendoza, Tucumán and Entre Ríos.
Now, a similar phenomenon could occur in the most attractive electoral terrain in the country:
the Buenos Aires municipalities
.
Due to the law that only allows two consecutive terms,
96 of the 135
municipal communal chiefs could not stand in 2023.
The conditional has its explanation.
The law to limit those positions that were indefinite was voted in 2016, by an agreement between the then governor María Eugenia Vidal and who was her best ally in the Buenos Aires Legislature: Sergio Massa.
Then, it was interpreted that the first period for all mayors, with the new norm, was the one that was passing;
the one that had started in 2015. Those who were elected again in 2019 could no longer do so in 2023.
They are the 96 on the list that circulates in political circles

Now, many of those leaders want the Justice to reinterpret the voted norm and the one they are passing now be considered as the first period.
In case of getting the Buenos Aires Supreme Court to give them that nod, there will be
laundering of mandates
and the 135 could be presented again in 2023. As Clarín advanced, it is the plan in which referents of the Frente de Todos y Juntos for the Change.
There is no crack there
.
The mayors received this month an endorsement of the highest level: in a meeting with Jorge Ferraresi, who was still mayor of Avellaneda (this Thursday he assumed as the new Minister of Habitat and Housing), President Alberto Fernández spoke in favor of the continuity of the communal chiefs.
With the excuse of being close and why they have to leave if the people want them - an argument that would
justify perpetuity in any elective office
- he supported that they can be reelected again.
The 51 of Together for Change
Although the last support came from the Frente de Todos, most of the communal chiefs who could not be reelected in 2023 are from
Together for Change: 51
.

The 41 of the Front of All
They are the first minority in this debate and there are names of weight, especially in the Conurbano.
With some peculiarities:
Jorge Ferraresi
(Avellaneda) and
Santiago Maggiotti
(Navarro), who have just been appointed in the Ministry of Habitat, a priori could not go for another reelection in 2023. Or could they do so even if the rule is not reinterpreted because did not meet two years of the last term?
More doubts: what about
Gabriel Katopodis
(San Martín), who was reelected in 2019 but went to the Ministry of Public Works with Alberto Fernández from the very beginning of the administration?
Justice could also have to intervene in this case if it wanted to appear.
