Argentina’s 2023 executive and legislative elections took place in a context marked by years of weak economic performance and recent spikes in high inflation. In this context, the primaries leading to the elections exposed a three-way race that broke traditional political cleavages and raised multiple questions and debates. Now, with the composition of the future Congress defined and the two candidates for the presidential second round selected, this roundtable will discuss the results of the election, what we might expect for the second round, and the political, social, and economic prospects opened by these results.
