Buenos Aires City’s National Electoral Board warned the party of far-right presidential candidate Javier Milei that it would be the “sole responsible party” should there be a lack of ballots during the presidential run-off scheduled for Sunday. Since late October, the coalition has been attempting to establish a narrative of electoral fraud, particularly surrounding polling station monitors and the vote count. Cerimedo, Viola, and other LLA representatives said that happened because of the absence of party monitors, something they think won’t happen in these elections. “From October to today, there are three coalitions that were left out of the running and will not participate in the run-off,” Viola said. However last week, Córdoba City’s vice-mayor-elect and HxC member, Javier Pretto, said he would vote for Milei in the run-off.
