The City, the mother of all battles
The City of Buenos Aires is the opposite case to that of Entre Ríos. In Buenos Aires territory, LLA plans to openly compete against the PRO. In this fight, the Minister of Security, Patricia Bullrichwould head the list for the Senate and presidential spokesperson, Manuel Adorni, would do the same in Deputies. The Casa Rosada knows that the former president of the PRO has a high level of voting intention and that is why it wants her to head a list.

The head of the Buenos Aires Government, Jorge Macri, together with the president of the PRO, Mauricio Macri.
Without neglecting his relationship with Milei, but with the permanent demand for compliance with the Supreme Court’s precautionary order for the co-participating funds, the head of Government, Jorge Macri, tries to lower the price of LLA’s incursion into the City. “It is normal that they want to put together their party and compete,” was the response they gave in the Buenos Aires mayor’s entourage after Karina Milei’s first act. That phrase did not lose validity as the weeks went by.
Jorge Macrito strengthen the claim for compliance with the precautionary order issued by the Supreme Court, wants the entire PRO to rally behind him as happened with his predecessor, Horacio Rodríguez Larretain 2020.
The non-rebellious Patagonia
The third pure PRO governor, Ignacio Torres, knows that in Chubut he has everything to win against Milei and LLA because, even though the President maintains high levels of popularity, in the province he does not have a lieutenant to whom he can transfer votes. Of his peers from Macrismo, he is the only one who did not start conversations with the liberal space.
Torres was one of the first opposition governors to experience getting into the ring against Milei and the only one to leave with a draw. Since then, his small table has recommended that he avoid confrontations with the Casa Rosada. Especially for sharing a common electorate with LLA.
The allies of the PRO in Cuyo
In San Luis and San Juan the panorama is similar to what happens in Entre Ríos. Orrego and Poggi cut the hegemony of Peronism in their respective provinces and aim to revalidate those victories in 2025. To do so, they need to build a bridge with LLA, but it is not that simple.
“In the gubernatorial elections the libertarians were within the motto, but the provisional president of the Senate, Bartolome Abdala, wants to be governor. Then there is the deputy Carlos D’Alessandro, which has another position. “It’s a complex setup,” analyzed a Poggi lieutenant who clarified that in San Luis President Milei has a high image, but that does not translate to other names.
In San Juan the scenario is almost identical with the difference that Peronism, which is the main opposition to Orrego, is divided between the sector that responds to the senator Sergio Uñac and the one who identifies with the former deputy Jose Luis Gioja. Like his peers from Together for Change, the provincial leader will aim to coexist with LLA with the good practices manual that is in the process of being prepared.
