The PRO coalition, founded by Mauricio Macri, signed its worst historical result, and its candidate, the national pro-choice deputy, Silvia Lospennato, came in third with a meager 15.92%. What was most striking was not just the result, but a devastating fact: Lospennato garnered exactly 261,595 votes, a figure that practically matches the number of public employees of the City of Buenos Aires.
Meanwhile, La Libertad Avanza, with the presidential spokesperson Manuel Adorni at the helm, was established as the leading force with 30.13% (495,069 votes) and Leandro Santoro's Kirchnerism followed with 27.35% (449,444 votes), the PRO fell to a distant third place, without real dispute capacity or electoral territoriality.
Neither the figure of Mauricio Macri—who publicly betrayed her—nor the political apparatus of the Buenos Aires officialdom managed to change the fate of a candidacy that seemed more ideological than strategic. Lospennato, known for her feminist militancy and gender activism, failed to break the ceiling of her own agenda, not even in a district historically aligned with the space she represents.
"We have already received the results from our witness tables and the results are not what we expected. That's why we wanted to come here, talk to all of you, do what needs to be done", she declared from her bunker, accompanied by figures like Vidal, Jorge Macri, Lombardi, and Laura Alonso.
