      COVERING CLIMATE NOW, PATAGONIAN EDITION

Anarcho-capitalist in front in Argentine Primary

  • Reason    14   August:

Voting is mandatory in Argentina, and in Sunday's national primary election, Javier Milei's La Libertad Avanza (Liberty Moves Forward) coalition received about a third of the total vote.

Sergio Massa's coalition (Together for Change) received  29.7 percent of the vote, and the Peronist  Unity for the Homeland coalition got 28.7 percent in a primary that was effectively the first ballot of  the October General Election

Milei rose to fame on TV five years ago by criticizing then-President Mauricio Macri for not being pro-market, calling for the elimination of the central bank and quoting free market economists Ludwig von Mises and Friedrich Hayek on prime time.


The remaining 10% of the vote was split between


 The Green party ( Projecto Sur) 
Socialist, Syndicalist, Socialist Workers, Communist, Marxist-Leninist, Leninist-Marxist,  Trotskyite, Workers and  some dozens of other factional parties:
