Karina Milei gathered the Buenos Aires legislators and launched the electoral campaign against Kicillof

Karina Milei with the Buenos Aires senators With the clear goal of taking away the province of Buenos Aires from Axel Kicillof next year, Karina Milei met this Monday with the Buenos Aires legislators of La Libertad Avanza and began planning the campaign, which will have a strong focus on security proposals and spending reduction. The Secretary General of the Presidency received in her office at Casa Rosada, first, the senators of the bloc and, later, the deputies. The official dedicated almost the entire afternoon, from 3:00 p.m. until after 7:00 p.m., to talking with local leaders, as she recently did with those from Buenos Aires city. As Infobae had anticipated, in each of the meetings, the guests brought the official the main ideas they have in mind, both the projects they plan to present in their respective chambers and the activities being organized to promote the brand in the country's most populous district. According to some of those present, during the day it was agreed to intensify some proposals such as the presentation of a law respecting private property, similar to the one discussed - and rejected - in Congress, which includes easier procedures for eviction processes. The official ordered the campaign Furthermore, an initiative was anticipated to prohibit the use of cell phones by detainees in prisons, as occurs in nationally managed facilities. Emphasis was also placed on the already proposed elimination of the provincial Senate, so that the Legislature becomes unicameral and the money currently allocated to that chamber is used for other purposes. "We handed Karina a folder with all the regulations we want to present and how each of the commissions she presides over is doing. We talked a lot about that and about the Thursday event," explained one of the legislators who attended the meeting. That day, the Secretary General, in her role as president of the space, will inaugurate the House of La Libertad Avanza in the province of Buenos Aires, which will be located at 1000 Caseros Avenue, in the Barracas neighborhood of Buenos Aires. "We talked a lot about everything coming up, it was all very pleasant, and the President's sister was very attentive. She gave us full support to continue working," thanked another leader. The national authorities added later that at the start of the meeting, the official thanked them for the work "they are doing to reflect the national agenda at the provincial level." She also met with the deputies Additionally, she lamented the small number of sessions held this year in both the Chamber of Deputies and the Senate, due to the lack of consensus within Peronism. The work of the Security Table promoted by La Libertad Avanza was reviewed, where projects such as the use of tasers by municipal police and the reorganization of allocations to have more provincial patrols are being worked on. The situation of IOMA was also discussed, based on a project being worked on by both chambers, and electoral reform and the different scenarios being evaluated were addressed. In the Libertarian ranks, they take for granted that Kicillof will run for President in 2027, as he cannot run for a third term in Buenos Aires. For this reason, the team working in the province is aware that they do not know who their opponent will be, although with the premise that it could be a strong Peronist figure if the opposition manages to overcome its differences and end internal conflicts. Meanwhile, before starting to define the candidates and their places on the lists, Karina Milei wants to ensure that the party regains prominence in the political discussion ahead of 2027.

If he ends up being the chosen one, "El Colo" will not only have internal support but also from PRO allies, the party he has never left despite assuming a position in the Executive Power. The current coordinating minister is friends with Cristian Ritondo, the main reference in Buenos Aires territory for the political force founded by Mauricio Macri. In fact, the yellow deputy recently resumed dialogue with his libertarian counterpart, Sebastián Pareja - who was present at the meeting with legislators - to start coordinating next year's campaign. They even talked last week and, after the meetings at Balcarce 50, they planned to meet again to analyze the overall situation in the province. "The idea is that the two of us will see what candidates we have on each side, because there are 135 districts to fill. Of course, we will defend the mayors we already have, so they can be re-elected," said a PRO source close to Ritondo.
