For some time, there has been a formula that has been sounding strong and it is not uncommon for Cristina Kirchner to think of it because she seems the most powerful to face Together for Change in elections complicated by high inflation and the difficult economic situation that many Argentines go through.
SPedro Erg Massa-Wado It would be, according to Roberto Navarro, the formula chosen by the Vice President to confront the Cambiemite candidate, showing a side of traditional Peronism but maintaining a recognized Kirchnerist as security guarantor.
Navarro revealed that for Cristina “the ideal formula” is headed by Massa, with Wado “from Vice”
For Rossi “it would be strange” for Alberto to compete in the PASO
The new Chief of Staff Agustín Rossi analyzed the electoral panorama within the Frente de Todos and maintained that “all the surveys indicate that Cristina (Kirchner) is above all“.
In the week in which he took office and in which the various parties that make up the Frente de Todos (FdT) held a summit to outline electoral strategyalso recognized that “it would be strange” for President Alberto Fernández “to have to undergo a STEP within his own political space.”
“I think we can all agree on something: it is clear that it is rare, right?, that a president who has the power to be reelected goes for reelection and has to submit to a STEP within his own political space. Now, the rarity comes from the singular, which has prevailed a lot in the functioning of our coalition. In other words, it would be in any case one more singularity, one more rarity,” he analyzed in radio statements.
According to Rossi, the polls indicate that Cristina (Kirchner) is above everyone”
At the same time, after sectors linked to Cristina Kirchner expressed the need to demand the “proscription” of the vice president and promote the creation of a commission to ask her to run as the candidate of the ruling party, he indicated: “All the surveys indicate the Cristina’s electoral potential, which is above the rest of the candidates or the potential candidates measured in these polls. This is clearly so”.
Rossi asked to lower anxiety around the assembly of the formulas
He also asked “not to give anxiety too much rein” and recalled the electoral arrangements in the last presidential elections. “They are different processes and stages, but when Cristina announced the candidacy of Alberto Fernández it was on May 18, that is, within three months; and the Scioli-Zannini formula, in 2015, was announced on June 17. One can tell me say ‘it’s a short time’, but the truth is that it’s a a lot of time“, frame.
Finally, the Chief of Staff, who previously served as comptroller of the Federal Intelligence Agency (AFI) and Minister of Defense, closed: And if there is a candidate that stands out above the rest, surely it can be synthesized in him. If no one is there, I think it’s a mistake to try to synthesize on someone who doesn’t do it naturally. That generates discomfort and frustration, and there the best thing would be to carry out a few STEP”.
