Finally, in the context of the internal discussion that Peronism is going through in the province of Buenos Aires and which has on the table the succession of the provincial executive and the vice governor Veronica Magario She declared that she would not take up her seat as provincial representative, which she accepted after leading the Fuerza Patria list for the third electoral group in the September 7 elections.
The decision came at a time of tension in the provincial Senate, where Kirchnerism has called for an extraordinary session to deal with two executive bills that will lose their parliamentary status if not dealt with before the end of the year, and, above all, pressure to determine vice-presidents in the upper house; negotiation, in which Cristina Kirchner proposes to the mayor of José C. Paz, Mario Ishii to occupy this strategic chairmanship, both in the administration of the upper house and in the succession planning of the provincial government. The first vice president of the Senate continues to stand behind the governor and lieutenant governor.
This Tuesday afternoon, ahead of the session in the Chamber of Deputies, Magario presented his resignation from his elected seat to which he was never sworn in. He did this through a communication to the presidency. As ifHe mentioned the possibility that once his seat as a representative is sworn in, they will not vote for his license to return to the Senate.; That was one of the hypotheses they used Axelism as part of the internal discussion in which Peronism is engaged.
Instead, it is assumed Silvina Nardini. She is a city councilwoman for Ensenada Parish who is politically responsive to her mayor. Mario Secco. In this way, Kicillof does not lose his presence within the Peronist bloc, although the representatives of the Right to the Future movement remain a “minority” in the official party.
“For my children, for the people of Ensenada and for the best mayor in its history, Mario Secco; for the people of the province of Buenos Aires, for public education. With Hebe as a flag, for the 30,000 and for the inalienable fight for equal opportunities and social justice; yes, I swear,” was the oath of Magario’s successor. In one of the boxes, the mayor of Ensenada applauded: Mario Secco and the former state representative, Susana Gonzálezwho will become president of the Puerto La Plata Consortium in the coming days.
Magario’s resignation was read out at Tuesday’s meeting in the Chamber of Deputies, highlighting that the replacement of the elected representative will be final.
Magario’s candidacy therefore had a testimonial character. The same path taken by the Buenos Aires Minister of Infrastructure, Gabriel Katopodiswho was also elected deputy in the last elections because he was on the Fuerza Patria list for the first electoral phase. He was elected senator, sworn in and then asked for permission to continue in the Buenos Aires cabinet at the request and decision of Kicillof.
This Tuesday’s meeting also saw a vote on the extraordinary license of the Kicillofista deputy. Gustavo Pulti; who returned to Mar del Plata to become a city councilor; while waiting to see who will take over as president of the spa town’s port. Pulti is one of those being considered for the position.
