The most voted candidates of each political space are the ones who formally compete in the general elections. The province of Buenos Aires is the largest electoral district in the country, representing 37% of the national electoral roll. Winning in the province of Buenos Aires is a fundamental step to reaching the presidency of the Nation. Why was a sector of the ruling party willing to separate the general elections in the province, which must elect a governor this year, from the presidential elections? Because according to some sectors, the current governor of the province of Buenos Aires, Axel Kicillof, has more chances to be reelected if Fernández is not on the ballot in the province of Buenos Aires.
