It is premature to describe the political development of libertarian deputy
Javier Milei as a "phenomenon. "
But it is true that it
has already produced a change in the Argentine electoral scene
in relation to the last elections.
The alliance system was disrupted by Milei's rise, and
a portion of Together for Change voters could migrate
to the libertarian party.
Likewise, Milei
could count on voters from the middle and lower classes
who would hardly lean towards JvC.
What advantages does Milei have in relation to the rest?
The first, and fundamental thing, is that she has no "history".
Second, the non-existence of that past does not force you to argue with a particular political adversary.
He has an autonomous speech.
Finally, and from what was said above,
he does not have to answer to anyone.

And
what is its disadvantage
?
Undoubtedly, the lack of experience in public administration and in the assembly of a government system.
A recent report by the consulting firm TresPuntoZero raises
an interesting hypothesis
: the link between Milei's postulates and the expectations of her potential voters is not so direct.
A good part of the libertarians
disagrees with the deputy on key issues
(State intervention in the economy and free academics, among others).
