She came emboldened with an extensive review of the Government's achievements even in times of coronavirus.
He had highlighted the agenda of Congress, despite the restrictions and offered praise to the management of Alberto Fernández who, he said, had "only 101 days without a pandemic."
But Gisela Marziotta, on stage, got tangled up with
a complaint that upset
her partner Leandro Santoro.
It was not just any act
.
The Buenos Aires candidate of the Frente de Todos who heads the list for deputies in the face of the PASO closed his campaign in the Ferro micro-stadium.
Marziotta is second on her ballot and, for that reason, she took the microphone first.
And, according to the obviousness of his gesture,
it dislodged him
.
"We now have more than 70% of the population vaccinated," Marziotta celebrated, averaging his speech.
"And many with the
second dose. Me, still waiting for it ...
", he launched.
What surely tried to be one more criticism of the Buenos Aires government, of "the right" embodied in Horacio Rodríguez Larreta, in charge of the schedules, was not interpreted that way, at least because of the face that he achieved in Santoro himself.
It is that although the logistics of the City,
the provision of vaccines is the responsibility of the national government
.
"But I am, I am. Next week it's my turn," Marziotta seemed to try to get out.
But no.
Under his breath, sitting on a nearby stool, Santoro told him that he
had
just
been vaccinated this Tuesday
.
Once a journalist, keen on panellism, the candidate who is about to renew her deputy seat, turned and asked: "Today?
Are you bigger than me?
"
"I signed up for the ... Sign up," the one chosen by Alberto Fernández to head the list answered hurriedly.
And then Marziotta went further.
"
No, but it's wrong
.
Let's
see,
tell me how
."
The
strange counterpoint
that occurred then between Marziotta and Santoro, on stage and almost with their backs to the act they were performing, continued, with the same strange register of strangeness of the main candidate who improvised an explanation to his second on the list for
how
to make his turn. .
Santoro:
-You send a WhatsApp and
it comes to you
.
Marziotta:
-But I'm writing to WhatsApp and it tells me that
I'm registered
.
Santoro:
-Why don't you send him twice?
Marziotta: -
More than two I did.
I am compulsive.
I mean, when I set a goal ...
And I still haven't achieved it.
Maybe tomorrow my turn will come.
But I
think I'm bigger than Santoro

To make matters worse, at that moment
the live
jumped and
cut
.
and thus the interruption in the full streaming of the act was recorded, which was posted on the party's YouTube account.
Uneven couple
The candidate's improvisation
not only took Santoro by surprise
.
Under the stage, several leaders clutched their heads before their vaccination nonsense.

Protected and promoted by Víctor Santa María, the trade unionist of the building managers who stomps in the armed forces of the Buenos Aires Justicialista Party, Marziotta arrived on the list with a key support, but never fully communed with the main candidate, chosen by Fernández with approval by Cristina Kirchner when we have the information.
The interaction of the candidates
in the campaign prior to the PASO has not been as lush as it was between Victoria Tolosa Paz and Daniel Gollan, the first on the official ballot in the Province of Buenos Aires.
For example, when Santoro presented his bills -with the odd oblivion-
Marziotta did not accompany him
on stage at the ND / Ateneo theater.
Santa María is, at the same time, a relevant media businessman aligned with the official discourse, with control of Channel 9, the newspaper Página / 12 and radios.
And in some candidate coverage, Santoro's role was not featured.
This Thursday, the Frente de Todos at the national level closes the campaign in Tecnópolis with an act with the presence of the President and the Vice President.
