The political landscape in Argentina has begun to shift following the appointment of Diego Santilli as the new Chief of Cabinet. According to political analyst Aníbal Urios, who spoke with Canal E, the government appears to have moved past weeks of internal conflict and is now focusing its attention back on governance and economic management. This change in leadership marks a significant turning point, allowing the administration to regain control of the public agenda after a period of political tension.
Urios emphasized that the transition in the Chief of Cabinet role has enabled the government to close a chapter of political strife and realign its focus towards critical issues such as economic growth, employment, and security—concerns that resonate strongly with the Argentine populace. He noted that over the next six months, these topics will dominate public discourse and shape the political narrative.
According to the latest surveys conducted by his consultancy firm, the current administration holds a favorable position heading into the electoral process. Meanwhile, the Peronist movement continues to struggle with finding a unified leader capable of challenging the national leadership. The analyst pointed out that despite some wear and tear on his administration, President Javier Milei maintains strong support among voters.
In an analysis of potential election scenarios, Urios highlighted that if Milei were to face off against Axel Kicillof in a runoff, he would likely secure around 60% of the vote. In contrast, the Peronist party still lacks a clear candidate who can unify the opposition electorate. This lack of a cohesive leadership within the opposition remains a critical weakness, according to the analyst.
The situation regarding the opposition's future candidates was further explored when discussing the prospects of Patricia Bullrich and Mauricio Macri. Urios stated that Bullrich retains high levels of positive image and could potentially compete effectively in multiple districts. However, regarding Macri, he suggested that the public now views him more as a political mediator rather than a presidential contender. The ruling party continues to maintain a dominant position within its coalition.
In Córdoba province, the political map shows a distinct pattern where Milei enjoys unprecedented support. According to data from CB Consultora Opinión Pública, Milei achieves the highest level of citizen approval in the entire country, reaching 53.5%. This figure contrasts sharply with the 21.0% approval rating of Axel Kicillof, the governor of Buenos Aires province, which results in a record-breaking gap of 32.5 percentage points in favor of Milei.
This polarization is not isolated to Córdoba but extends to neighboring regions such as Mendoza, where similar trends are observed. Analysts note that this political inclination significantly influences local discussions and strategies for the upcoming year.
Within the domestic sphere, Governor Martin Llaryora manages to preserve acceptable levels of governability and support amidst complex economic conditions. His standing ranks eighth among provincial governors based on public perception. Despite maintaining a slight advantage, there is a noted decline in overall sympathy compared to previous months.
The positioning of the provincial governor reflects the delicate balance required by the Cordoban Peronism to retain traditional supporters without directly opposing the presidential figurehead. The strategy adopted by the Cordoban government aims to protect local finances and sustain public works in productive areas.

Analyst Aníbal Urios stated that the government has moved past internal conflicts and refocused attention on governance. According to his consultancy's surveys, the ruling coalition maintains a favorable position ahead of the electoral process, while the Peronist movement continues without a clear figure capable of challenging national leadership. Urios noted that Javier Milei retains strong support despite the weariness of his administration and would likely win a runoff election against Axel Kicillof by nearly 60%. The opposition faces challenges due to the lack of a unified leader, with both national and provincial levels struggling to present a cohesive candidate. Meanwhile, Patricia Bullrich remains a competitive figure across various districts, whereas Mauricio Macri is seen more as a political coordinator than a presidential candidate.

PerfilIndependentRight4 days ago The political map in Cordoba: Milei record in its main bastion and Llaryora stands firmThe province of Córdoba has solidified its position as the most resistant district to the political project of Buenos Aires' Peronism and remains a crucial pillar for the national government's popularity. According to data from CB Consultora Opinión Pública's June report, President Javier Milei enjoys the highest approval ratings in Córdoba at 53.5%, significantly higher than his negative ratings of 42.1%. This contrasts sharply with Governor Axel Kicillof of Buenos Aires, who receives just 21.0% approval in Córdoba, with 74.8% disapproval. The polarization creates a record 32.5-point advantage for Milei in the region. Similar trends are observed in neighboring provinces like Mendoza, where Milei also holds strong support. Locally, Governor Martín Llaryora maintains acceptable governance ratings, placing him eighth among provincial governors in terms of approval. His administration is seen as stable despite economic challenges.
Bias read (Right): The article presents a clear pro-Milei narrative by emphasizing his high approval ratings in Córdoba while contrasting them with low approval ratings for Axel Kicillof. It uses strong positive language ('récord', 'ventaja más amplia') for Milei and negative language ('contundente 74.8% de rechazo')
