In a historic electoral day, La Libertad Avanza (LLA) clearly prevailed in the legislative elections of the Autonomous City of Buenos Aires, displacing traditional forces and marking a new milestone in the Argentine political map. With 30.10% of the votes and with Manuel Adorni as the top candidate, the space led by President Javier Milei not only defeated Kirchnerism but also caused the biggest fall of PRO in twenty years.
"It wasn't just an election between candidates, it was Kirchnerism of the caste or freedom, and today freedom won once again", celebrated Manuel Adorni after the results were announced. In his usual energetic and disruptive tone, President Milei sent a clear message to the supporters: "Paint the whole country purple."
Adorni arrasó en CABA.
The magnitude of the victory lies not only in the percentage obtained but in the collapse of the party structures that dominated the Buenos Aires scene since 2005, when Marcos Peña led PRO to its first electoral victory in the city. Since then, the party founded by Mauricio Macri maintained the Government leadership for 18 uninterrupted years.
In second place, with 27.42%, was Peronism, which had the radical Leandro Santoro as a candidate, while PRO plummeted to third place, with Silvia Lospennato obtaining just over 15%. As an aggravating factor, the force failed to prevail in any commune. Participation was low, with just 52.30% of the registry casting their vote. The data was known at 7:12 PM, with 54.20% of the tables counted.
Horacio Rodríguez Larreta, former Buenos Aires Government leader and emblematic figure of PRO, was relegated to fourth place, with a meager 8.06%. Further back were the testimonial and low-impact electoral candidacies: Vanina Biasi (Left Front), Ramiro Marra (2.63%), Paula Oliveto (2.48%), Lula Levy (2.31%), Alejandro Kim (2.05%), and Ricardo Caruso Lombardi (1.68%). None of the other seven candidates surpassed 1% of the votes.

In her concession speech, Lospennato used a phrase that refers to the decline of Peronism in 2023: "The numbers weren't what we expected", thus repeating the words of Sergio Massa after his fall against Milei.
Meanwhile, Adorni, the newly elected legislator, confirmed that La Libertad Avanza will compete alone in the upcoming elections, although he extended a broad invitation: "We invite all political forces that want real change in Argentina to join Javier Milei's project."
