The governor of Santa Fe, the Peronist Omar Perotti, expressed this Thursday his wish that Sergio Massa be elected president in October and, before a specific consultation, indicated that in a hypothetical ballot between Javier Milei and Patricia Bullrich, he would vote for the candidate of La Libertad Avanza.
After that statement, Perotti received the replica of several Peronist leaderswho said, among other things, that Milei and Bullrich “are never an option to vote” and they trusted that, in an eventual runoff, the candidate of the Union for the Homeland, the current Minister of Economy Sergio Massa, will be there.
“I have voted for Massa”, said the provincial president in relation to the PASO of August 13. However, when asked regarding a possible ballot between the candidate of La Libertad Avanza and that of Together for Change, Perotti leaned towards the national libertarian deputy.

“I vote for Milei, if that is the option I vote for Milei,” said the governor of Santa Fe in statements to the radio Boing, from the city of Rosario. Along these lines, he explained that “We already saw the Bullrich thing, and I wouldn’t want that stage once more”alluding to the administration of Mauricio Macri, from 2015 to 2019, in which the candidate was Minister of National Security.
“I want Massa to be the president and I want that, if someone goes to the ballot, it is Massa“he added. However, if the pro-government candidate does not reach an eventual ballot in the general elections on October 22, “in that option I have no doubts“, Perotti said, and spoke for Milei.
“I say this because I’m sorry, the expectations that had been generated with Macri and ‘the best team of the last 50 years’ were not good,” recalled Perotti, who heads the list of provincial deputies from the United We Advance front for the local elections on September 10.
Pullaro affirmed that he would vote for Milei in a run-off once morest Massa
In addition, he asked himself: “Why not give him an alternative, if those are the options, to which someone may be approaching something differently?”, a comment that can be interpreted as an endorsement of the candidate who prevailed as the first force in the PASO.
As happened days before with the candidate for governor of Santa Fe from Juntos por el Cambio, Maximiliano Pullaro, who caused discomfort by saying that he would lean towards Milei in a ballot if Bullrich is left out of that instance, now Perotti was involved in the controversy inside your space.
The reactions within Kirchnerism to Perotti’s position
The governor’s statements did not go unnoticed in the provincial Peronism, whose head, the deputy Ricardo Olivera, assured: “I rule out any possibility that Massa is not in the ballot, therefore I vote for Massa.” He also said that while “there are three candidates”, they represent “two country models, one led by Bullrich and Milei and another led by Massa.”
The head of the block of provincial deputies of the PJ, Leandro Busatto, maintained for his part that “neither Milei nor Bullrich can ever be an option to vote, under any circumstances, unless one is assumed to be an accomplice or necessary participant in an economic massacre and social”.
Electoral calendar 2023: when are the general elections and what is voted, province by province
The Rosario councilor Norma Lopez, from the Peronism sector led in Santa Fe by the chief of staff and vice-presidential candidate, Agustín Rossi, pointed out that “there are sectors that, in order to position themselves electorally, say that in a hypothetical run-off they would vote for Milei.” Without mentioning Perotti, he added that “we defend public education from kindergarten to university, health and a State for all citizens,” to which he added: “It is with the people and not once morest them.”
At the national level and also without naming the president of Santa Fe, the director of Migrations and leader of La Cámpora, Florencia Carigniano, wrote on Twitter: “Given the questions that journalism is asking the political leaders of Santa Fe, regarding which option they would choose Between an eventual ballot between Milei and Bullrich, we don’t see any other option than Sergio Massa and that’s why we’re working to make him our president.”
