Voters hand Milei belated birthday present, post-mortem for Peronism overdue
Peronism’s renovation is well overdue. It seems Argentines would much rather carry on along Milei’s path of uncertainty and sacrifice than go back to reach the future.
Forced as he was by Argentina’s electoral calendar, President Javier Milei put his “chainsaw” austerity approach and deregulatory reform drive to the test on Sunday.
The results indicate that voters are at the least content with what they see, despite the hardships they have faced. At the very least, the results tell us that they don’t want to go back to get to the future.
Milei, who turned 55 this week, received a belated birthday present in Sunday’s midterm elections. He went into the election off the back of a string of negative headlines and prior to the vote, analysts and experts had been talking up a vote share of around 30 percent on average, 35 percent perhaps.
Author's summary: Milei's path gains support despite hardships.
