The recent political dispute between Axel Kicillof and Cristina Kirchner He has evidenced internal tensions within Buenos Aires, especially around electoral deadlines and suspension of the passage. The project that was voted in the Buenos Aires Senate, which does not modify the times to present candidates, has generated a new chapter of confrontation between both leaders, with significant implications for political dynamics in the province of Buenos Aires.

This decision contrasts with the initial proposal of Axel Kicillofwhich was looking for a 70 -day campaign and a greater separation between the provincial and national elections.
However, Kirchnerism, led by Cristina Kirchnerhe chose not to support the modification of electoral deadlines, which has generated discomfort in La Plata. The lack of support from Kirchnerism to Kicillof’s proposal has revived internal tensions within Peronism.
In the Kicillof environment, this decision is perceived as a strategy of Kirchnerism to condition the decisions of the governor at the electoral negotiating table. On the other hand, Kirchnerism argues that any electoral reform must have a clear consensus between the ruling and the opposition.
The figure of Cristina Kirchner plays a central role in this dispute. According to Kicillofismo, Kirchnerism could be using the possibility of a double candidacy of Cristina Kirchner as a pressure tool to influence lists.
This strategy, which would allow Cristina Kirchner to be a candidate both in the provincial and national elections, has generated speculation about her true intentions and has intensified internal frictions.

The dispute between Axel Kicillof and Cristina Kirchner around electoral terms reflects internal tensions within Buenos Aires and highlights the difficulties in reaching a consensus in a key election year.
