Every time

Alberto Fernández

felt cornered by public opinion, such as the recent VIP Vaccination scandal, he automatically appealed to the most convenient resource of the crack: he sought to compare himself in some way with

Mauricio Macri

, his predecessor, assuming that the rejection of the figure of the former president would save him.

A

new poll

accessed this weekend by

Clarín

shows for the first time the leader of Juntos por el Cambio with better numbers than his counterpart from the Frente de Todos.

And it opens the question: has Fernández already lost that bonus?

Who generates more adhesions and, above all, more criticism?

The survey that raises this question with its numbers is from

Trespuntozero

, a consulting firm that has clients on both sides of different parties and even did work for the current national government.

With an interesting precedent: in October 2019, and after the widespread blunder of the PASO, it was the Argentine pollster that best predicted the presidential one.

For its latest survey, between February 23 and 25, it surveyed

1,000 cases

throughout the country and presented a report with the main current data.

To start with, in the chapter on

"Sociopolitical Climate"

, it is already noted that these are not good times for the ruling party.

- With

40.6%

,

corruption

clearly reappears as the

problem that most worries

Argentines (did the VIP Vaccination have more influence or the conviction of Lázaro Báez).

- The

negative evaluation

of the

national management

seems to find no bottom: it reached

- 66.7%

, after having had a floor of - 16.3% at the end of March.

Later,

Trespuntozero

delves into the images of the main leaders of the two great forces.

And comes the surprise:

-

Fernández

combines

32%

positive (14% very good and 18% good) and

- 60.9%

negative (16.5% bad and 43.4% very bad).

Differential against - 28.9 points.

-

Macri

, on the other hand, is

40.3%

positive (14.5% good and 25.8% very good) and

- 56.2%

negative (15.8% bad and 40.4% very bad).

Differential also against, but 15.9 points.

That is, the bid became who would be the least bad.

An unthinkable situation months ago.

With a

conclusive data

: between the end of March and April, Fernández had a peak of 75.4% weighting in favor, and

he took between 30 and 40 points from his predecessor

.

The President first lost the circumstantial support of voters from other parties -including Juntos por el Cambio-, after the softer ruling party and now he also receives questions from the toughest Kirchnerista.

This phenomenon will have to be followed carefully.

Most of the consulting firms coincide with the evolution of both leaders -Fernández on the downside and Macri, more oscillating but stable-, although 

almost all continue to put the current president up

.

With this change, Fernández was somehow mimicked with the numbers of Cristina Kirchner, who in the

Trespuntozero

table

adds up + 29.3% and - 66.9% (negative differential of - 37.6 points).

The only one who continues to avoid this red outlook is

Horacio Rodríguez Larreta

, who scores comfortably with a balance of 19.1 points in favor, thanks to a positive of

51.2%

and a negative of -32.1%.

Equally, an alert sounds for the Buenosairean head of Government: since October he lost 12 weighting points in favor.

An interesting breakdown to observe and analyze in the study is the table that shows opinions according to

sex, age, educational level and area of ​​residence

.

There are fewer differences than might be assumed in such a polarized setting.

-

The best of Macri

appears among women (42% positive), those over 51 years of age (+ 50.8%), those who only finished primary school (+ 43.3%) and those who live inside the country (+ 43.1%).

The most striking thing in his case is the data by educational level, since in general Juntos por el Cambio has stronger support among university students.

-

The best of Fernández

, curiously, also occurs among women (+ 36%), those over 51 (34.3%), those who finished primary school (34.4%) and -the only difference with Macri- los living in the AMBA (+ 32.9%).
