The Secretary General of the Presidency of Argentina, Karina Mileisister of the President of the Republic Javier Milei, voted around 12 pm in the Legislative Election of Buenos Aires to applause of militancy. “Olé, Olé, Olé, Boss, Chief,” sang the group of militants who followed her. Its electoral zone was the college of the Argentine Institute Pedro Poveda, according to a newspaper report The nation.
By mid -morning, about 70 people had already voted on site, a number in line with the other nearby sections. Upon leaving the voting booth, Karina greeted the three table inspectors on a protocol gesture. She just smiled after putting the envelope in the ballot box. According to local press reports, until the middle of the day the attendance at the polls was 30% of the electorate.
Still according to the newspaper, one detail caught the attention of voters: alongside the name of Karina Milei, in the lists set at the entrance, someone had written “3%”. The number, which mentions the percentage of bribes it allegedly received, was painted improvised and quickly became a matter among the people who consulted the registration of voters for mentioning the corruption scandal in which Karina is involved.
He then sought to relieve the pressure of journalists, repeating on several occasions: “I’m not a candidate for anything. I never talk.” She was asked about the scandal of audios and alleged bribes involving the area of people with disabilities, but did not comment.
