Daniel Scioli

, who was on the verge of being president in 2015, was the first to register among the pre-candidates of the ruling party, last February.

Ambassador of Brazil during much of Fernández's term, he became Minister of Productive Development for a brief period in the middle of last year, after the departure of Matías Kulfas.

But the arrival of Sergio Massa as Super Minister of the Economy, absorbing that portfolio, made him return to his position as national representative to the neighboring country.

He is also noted on the list of candidates.

Scioli is convinced to play the presidential race again and went out to say so in the media as soon as Fernández's resignation from running for re-election was confirmed.

"

," said the former governor of the province of Buenos Aires.

Jorge Capitanich

, governor of Chaco, is another of those who still keeps his aspirations active, beyond not having specific support within the official coalition.

"To be president, you don't have to ask for permission," Capitanich also said in February.

His motivation for taking office did not change during this time.

He wants to play, at least in Todista's internal team.

The one of

With a good historical relationship with Vice President Cristina Kirchner, the current chief of staff came to that position by decision of Fernández, at the beginning of the year, when Juan Manzur returned to Tucumán to take over the governorship.

Rossi acknowledged that he is seduced by the idea of ​​being president, but this week he had tied that possibility to Alberto's decision to play or not.

"If the President decides to be a candidate, I will accompany him, if not, I will evaluate the possibility of my candidacy," he said in a radio interview.

The other minister who has expectations of competing and who has the support of La Cámpora and a sector of Justicialism in the provinces is

His launch is tied to an eventual decision by Cristina Kirchner, his political boss, to compete or not.

What are Sergio Massa and Cristina Kirchner going to do?

The main names that emerge as candidates, however.

They are those of

and

, although none of them declared their intentions to be publicly.

In the case of Massa, even in an adverse context of the economy, with inflation exceeding 7% per month and the parallel dollar reaching almost $450, the name of the Minister of Economy continues to be the one that resonates the most to lead a ticket From the Front of All.

Massa has been measured in different surveys, which show him with levels of competitiveness similar to Cristina's, especially in voting intentions.

Thursday's photo with Alberto Fernández, plus his alleged influence at the time of Antonio Aracre's departure as the president's chief adviser, reinforces him as a candidate for the presidency.

Cristina, finally, is the other possible candidate, although in a fit of rage after the 6-year prison sentence she received in December last year, the vice president assured that she was not going to be "a candidate for anything" and that her name "It's not going to be on any ballot."

The clamor operation, however, has been growing for months, and this Saturday it will have a new chapter, with an act in Ferro in which they will ask for its launch.
