Argentina's President Javier Milei, representing the fascistic party La Libertad Avanza (LLA), won the mid-term elections held on October 26, amidst deepening social, economic, and political crises.
The election saw the lowest turnout since the end of the dictatorship in 1983, with LLA gaining seats and obtaining over 40 percent of the vote nationally across both houses.
The elections renewed 127 seats in the Chamber of Deputies and 24 in the Senate.
The outcome is touted by the media as a popular endorsement of Milei’s economic austerity agenda.
