One of the political protagonists of the week was Rodrigo de Loredo. The now-former MP had a blistering crackdown on several political broadcasts, in which he appeared to be accelerating an attack against him Luis Richteralways with an eye on the 2027 gubernatorial election.
The radical leader claimed Luis Juez had the opportunity to defeat the province’s ruling party if they were united in the next round of elections. “If Judge took this step and gave space to young people, Peronism would end in the province.”he emphasized.
And he added: “If I have tried several times, I have lost with one, with De la Sota, with Schiaretti, with Llaryora, with one of each color, I leave room for young people”hurry up. And if there was any doubt about his vision for these elections, he made it clear again “It will be inevitable that De Loredo’s name will be among the gubernatorial candidates.”.
People close to Luis Juez assure that the senator did not like the statements, but he decided not to respond for the time being. “People are worried because they can’t buy cider and sweet bread. I can’t go out at the end of a difficult year and talk about candidacies. Who cares now?” they say, Judge apologized when asked by journalists about De Loredo’s words.
In the Civic Front bunker there are some theories about the Deloredista attacks and they understand that the previous “Fernet formula” is being watered down. “Rodrigo started to miss the power and get bored. We have already seen this, this happened to Negri and Aguad too; guys who were used to being in Buenos Aires from Tuesday to Friday and when it was their turn to return they had to endure it. Now that he is no longer a deputy, he comes out with these harassments to speed us up.”suggested a member of the small jury.
But despite the tensions between De Loredo and Judge, those close to the senator continue to emphasize that there will be no reaction for now. “We will not fuel the morbidity and we will not please the ruling party that is following this closely. Luis feels good, he finished in the Senate with La Libertad Avanza, Bullrich praised him in the networks and next week he meets with Karina. Rodrigo lets him continue here in Córdoba. Luis, if he is healthy, he will fight for the candidacy,” they argued, assuming that in the last few weeks there have been the most diverse meetings, including with several radicals leaders.
From the same bunker, they also assume that there may be new attacks from De Loredo, analyzing that although she has a good dialogue with Santiago Caputo, one of the members of the so-called “Iron Triangle” of the President, they are aware that the recent decisions have been made by Karina Milei and the good results across the country have given a boost to her electoral strategy, which is why they imagine her as the main point guard in 2027.
The dreaded Déjà vu
In the civil front (and of course also in radicalism) no one hides their concern about a crisis Déjà vu the tense election situation in 2023. At that time, the conflict over the definition of the gubernatorial candidate lasted for months, with both leaders measuring their strengths and, in the long term, creating strong differences within the defunct organization Together for Change. The current attack from the former deputy, who calls on the judge to “step aside” and criticizes his defeats, reopens old wounds.

Moved by Loredo
In recent days, De Loredo moved into the interior of the province. The former deputy met with key representatives of the Radical Civic Union (UCR) of the department of San Justo, a strategic area in the east of Córdoba where Governor Martín Llaryora has his foot in the door. At this meeting, which was attended by figures from San Francisco, Freyre and Brinkmann, among others, the focus was on planning the opposition’s armed forces for 2027.
