Months away from the presidential elections in Argentina, the definition of lists and even candidates is surrounded by uncertainty and it is in this context that multiple scenarios occur. Although the vice president Cristina Kirchner announced that this year he will not run for an executive position, in some he found that he is already positioning himself against a possible opponent: the president of the PROPatricia Bullrich.
According to a survey by the consultancy circuitsheld in the province of Buenos Aires between February 1 and 3, the greatest intention of votes would be concentrated between both leaders. The survey, of 1,148 cases with the telephone survey and IVR methodology, also shows a large percentage of undecided, which increased to more than 16% in some cases.
Based on the possible presidential candidates –not including Cristina Kirchner– 20.8% said they would vote for Patricia Bullrich; 14.6% to Horacio Rodríguez Larreta; 13.8% to Mauricio Macri; 10.4% to Alberto Fernández; 9.9% to Sergio Massa; 7.3% to Javier Milei; 3.7% to Guillermo Moreno; and 3.3% to Myriam Bregman. 16.2% would not vote for any.
