In a ruling published today, the Supreme Court lifted last week’s precautionary measure suspending elections in Tucumán province. However, the Court cited Manzur’s withdrawal as a candidate as reason enough to lift the suspension. Tucumán then requested that the precautionary measure be lifted. According to today’s ruling, Alfaro refused to drop the amparo, but the Court stated that it would nevertheless lift the suspension. This is not the only re-election bid put on hold by the Supreme Court — last week San Juan’s Governor Sergio Uñac was declared ineligible to run for a third consecutive term.
