The election in Jujuy closed, in which the radical Gerardo Morales expects a victory for candidate

Carlos Sadir

-current provincial Finance Minister- to celebrate with his allies Horacio Rodríguez Larreta and Martín Lousteau.

The Buenos Aires head of government and the UCR senator

plan to arrive in San Salvador

to join the festivities.

Present on the ballot as a candidate for constituent convention, Morales will seek

to capitalize on the victory a month and a half after the closing

of the national lists.

Holder of radicalism and presidential candidate, the governor of Jujuy since 2015 will define in the coming weeks if he goes to PASO or if he advances in an agreement within Together for Change.

Since the summer, with the exhibition of that Beatle photo in Mar del Plata, the two references with whom he will share the stage on Sunday night are

two of his main partners

in the opposition coalition.

Carlos Sadir, candidate for governor of the ruling party of Jujuy.

Also Elisa Carrió.

For the Civic Coalition, Maximiliano Ferraro, president of the party, would give the present, and radical leaders from various provinces will attend.

In the previous one, in the president's bunker they expected a

difference in favor of about 20 points.

"This coming election has to mark the

end of the cycle of Kirchnerism

, which did a lot of damage to Argentina," Morales said this Sunday, with a speech with national projection.

“We reestablished order in the State, in public accounts and in people's lives.

It is what must be done at the national level.

When people choose the next president, they will take those things into account”, considered the head of the UCR.

Peronism divided and bid with the left


The ruling party came to the election as a favorite, favored by the

division of Peronism, with three candidates from that space

: Rubén Rivarola (Justicialista Front), Juan Cardozo Traillou (Unidad Front for Jujuy) and Rodolfo Tecchi (Jujuy Has a Future).

Cardozo Traillou ran for the sector led by Guillermo Snopek, after Rivarola challenged the nomination of the senator, brother-in-law of Morales.

Rivarola and Snopek accused each other of being functional to the governor.

Given this scenario, with

Alejandro Vilca

as a candidate, the Left Front feeds expectations of competing for second place.

When voting, the national deputy denounced irregularities.

"

We have detected places where our prosecutors were not allowed to enter and missing ballots or overlapping ballots, which we have already replaced

," he questioned.

Iñaki Aldasoro

, from Política Obrera, also appeared from the left

.

Cecilia García Casasco

, for the libertarians,

did not get the support of Javier Milei

.

García Casasco is the wife of Luciano Demarco, a former mayor of Perico who was unable to appear after being dismissed from his position in March for appropriating a public piece of land and annexing it to his house.

In addition to governor and vice, the

588,701 qualified people

(1.67% of the national register) had the possibility of electing 48 conventional, 24 provincial deputies, mayors, councilors and other municipal authorities.

They voted with a paper ballot and a collector system.

There was a

good level of participation

during the morning and the first hours of the afternoon, according to the perception of the provincial referents.
