In an event loaded with political symbolism, President Javier Milei led a massive campaign activity this Tuesday in the Buenos Aires neighborhood of Villa Lugano, accompanied by his spokesperson and current first candidate for legislator for the City of Buenos Aires, Manuel Adorni.
The day, which had originally been scheduled as a walk through the neighborhood, was transformed into a political event following the mandatory postponement due to the death of Pope Francis.

With his usual energetic tone, Milei addressed a huge crowd that gathered to listen to him in one of the historically most neglected neighborhoods of the capital.
"To continue progressing with the ideas of freedom, we must put the last nail in the coffin of Kirchnerism," he declared from a podium, in a critique of the political and economic model that destroyed Argentina over the last decades. Meanwhile, chants like: "You have to jump, you have to jump, those who don't jump are radicals" were heard.

The leader was not alone: alongside him was his sister and Secretary General of the Presidency, Karina Milei, who also presides over La Libertad Avanza. Her presence once again confirmed her political weight within the libertarian space and her key role in the electoral strategy.

The event is part of La Libertad Avanza's campaign ahead of the legislative elections on May 18, in which the ruling party seeks to consolidate its power in the Buenos Aires area. Manuel Adorni, who went from being the presidential spokesperson to leading the list of legislators, was the main protagonist of the event alongside Milei. "Vote for Manuel Adorni," urged the President at the end of his speech, making it clear that his support is total.

The event in Lugano was also a clear political signal, where the ruling party seeks to advance both in the strongholds of Peronism and in a district historically governed by PRO, bringing its message of reform, adjustment, and freedom to all corners of the City.
