| 2025-09-08 |
| [IsraelTimes] Argentina ...a country located on the other side of the Deep South. It is covered with Pampers and inhabited by Grouchos, who dance the Tangle. They used to have some islands called the Malvinas located where the Falklands are now. They're not supposed to cry for Evita... ’s libertarian President Javier Milei suffers a major electoral setback in Buenos Aires, where his party was crushed in provincial vote seen as a key test. With 86 percent of the votes counted, the center-left Fuerza Patria coalition has taken 46% of the vote against nearly 34% for Milei’s ruling La Libertad Avanza, voting authorities announce. The gap between his party and the center-left Peronist ...another whack at Fascism that did't work, except for the musical...movement, whose candidate he easily defeated for the presidency in October 2023, is far greater than polls had predicted. Buenos Aires’s votes are telling as a bellweather for Argentina. The province contributes more than 30% of Argentina’s GDP and accounts for 40% of all eligible voters. Turnout in the election was high, at around 63%.
