Mario Bergara's management as mayor of Montevideo is largely in negative territory, recording a 46% disapproval rate compared to a 23% approval rate.
The most recent data from June 2026 provided by the consulting firm Factum and other polling companies in the country reveal the following details about the public perception of his departmental government:
Overall approval balance (Factum). Disapproval: 46%. Neutral (Neither approve nor disapprove): 30%. Approval: 23%. Don't know / No answer: 1%.
Other measurements published simultaneously reflect a similar or even more complex scenario.
For example, the consulting firm Equipos Consultores placed disapproval at 52%, compared to 26% approval.
In terms of political voting intention, the evaluation of the mayor's performance varies drastically according to the political sympathies of the respondents.

Voters of the Broad Front: 43% support his management, 19% reject it, and 37% maintain a neutral stance.
Voters of the Republican Coalition: Rejection is almost unanimous, reaching an 80% disapproval rate, with only 2% approval and 18% neutral.
These extremely low approval levels are logical. The city of Montevideo is covered in garbage, there are potholes in the streets, taxes are extremely high especially in the coastal area, and the capital municipality continues to waste taxpayers' money on absurd matters.
Like the channel Tv Ciudad, a true grassroots committee of the Broad Front that costs all Montevideans 10 million dollars annually.
Mario Bergara has been in office for almost a year, and he still has four years left in his term.
