A family photo starring Horacio Rodríguez Larreta, Patricia Bullrich, Jorge and Mauricio Macri was the resource with which the PRO candidates sought on Monday to show unity in the face of the final stretch of the internal Together for Change that is defined this Sunday in the PASO. Macrismo thus tries to leave behind the quarrels of the dispute that managed to heat up and cross the national campaigns and the City of Buenos Aires during the last months.
The good harmony that the image in pose intends was transmitted only in photographic format: the meeting they organized to send a message of unity was closed to the press and in absolute secrecy. However, the Clarín photographer managed to capture the backstage and a moment of the photo session agreed during the meeting that lasted just over 20 minutes.
The presidential candidates, the aspirant to the Head of Government and the leader of the PRO met at the German Riding Club, in the neighborhood of Palermo, with the excuse of supporting the candidacy of Jorge Macri in the fight to succeed Rodríguez Larreta at the head of the Buenos Aires Executive.
The former president was the first to arrive at the place of the appointment. Then Jorge Macri, Rodríguez Larreta and finally Bullrich followed. Just twenty minutes later and aboard a black van, Mauricio Macri left, around 18, the place agreed for the expected photo session.
Meanwhile, the current Minister of Government of Buenos Aires and former mayor of Vicente López obtained throughout the campaign the support of both Rodríguez Larreta – although sinuous and with winks towards Martín Lousteau – and Bullrich, despite the tension that existed between them for the presidential candidacy.

The former Minister of Security played completely for the candidacy of the cousin of the former president, while the head of the Buenos Aires Government, although he added him to his cabinet, let run a tacit support to Lousteau, with photos, tours and meetings that, in parallel, were giving to talk in the campaign, even until the last days. The senator, from the radicalism, competes with the PRO in the internal JxC to succeed Rodríguez Larreta in the City of Buenos Aires.
After the family photo, Bullrich has a campaign agenda in the neighborhood of Belgrano, where he will lead the first of the four closing acts of the campaign that he has planned from Monday to Thursday. He will also have meetings in Rosario, in the City of Córdoba and in the town of Lanús -municipality of his candidate for governor Néstor Grindetti- in the Province of Buenos Aires.
