ARGENTINA Historic session in the Senate: An "anti-Kirchnerist" bloc was formed with a supermajority and a libertarian remained as Provisional PresidentPublished 53 mins ago in December 13, 2023By Argentinian Editorial Team
For the first time in decades, Kirchner's Peronism will be a minority in the Senate, after La Libertad Avanza, Juntos por el Cambio and several provincial Peronist senators will form a unified front.
As anticipated by La Derecha Diario, the senators of La Libertad Avanza, the PRO, the UCR, and the provincial Peronism joined together to form a provisional bloc of 39 votes, which has a wide advantage over the Union for the Homeland bloc, which is left with only 33 senators.
This new bloc put its majority to the test today by electing, by 39 votes in favor, the libertarian senator Bartolomé Abdala, as Provisional President of the Senate. Carolina Losada was then sworn in as first vice president and Alejandra Vigo, Schiaretti's wife, as second vice president.
