Some 29 municipalities of Córdoba went to the polls this Sunday, in another election day that will serve to measure the political thermometer of the province in the run-up to the elections for governor on June 25.
In most of the districts that were voted, Peronism, referenced in Juan Schiaretti candidate for governor, Martín Llaryora, seeks to retain those seats. It is expected that the current mayor of the capital of Cordoba will be present in one of the localities to capitalize on triumphs.
In Together for Change there is special interest in four localities: Alcira Gigena, Las Vertientes, and the smaller communes of Capilla del Sitión and Villa Sarmiento. In all four, radicals govern who will try to continue governing.
Meanwhile, in eight other localities, single lists were presented, so the election day will be a mere formal procedure.
What is voted on and when.

Also in Paso Viejo and Tuclame (Cruz del Eje department); Villa Sarmiento (General Roca); Copacabana (Ischilín); Assunta and Charras (Juárez Celman); and Alcira Gigena, Bulnes, Chucul, Las Acequias and Las Vertientes (Río Cuarto).

The province has 427 municipalities and communes, of which 227 will vote simultaneously with the provincial elections of June 25, and the rest on different dates until July 23.
Until the day that will define the next governor, every triumph is cause for celebration in Together for Change. Córdoba is the place that they want to ensure because of the weight of its register – almost 3 million Cordobans – and because it is the province that in 2015 gave the final impulse to Mauricio Macri to reach the presidency.
Last Sunday, the candidate of Together for Change, José María Odarda, won as elected mayor in the elections of the municipality of Corral de Bustos-Ifflinger, in the department Juárez Celman, Córdoba.
Odarda then won 51.6% of the vote, while his Peronist rival and current president of the Deliberative Council, Santiago Giovagnoli, 41.7%.
