🇦🇷 Javier Milei
Argentina Poll Shows Milei Keeps 50.5% of His Voters
What happened
A survey by Escenarios found that 50.5% of people who voted for President Javier Milei in 2023 would vote for his party, La Libertad Avanza, again. Peronism leads with 35.7% of national vote intention, ahead of Milei's camp with 27.2%. A second survey by Zentrix Consultora found approval of Milei's government rising to 35.2%, with 59.3% of respondents saying they would never vote for him.
Why it matters
The poll results are significant for investors, particularly those holding Argentine bonds, as a Peronist return to power could raise questions over the fiscal surplus and the opening to foreign capital. The election outcome is also closely watched by the US government, which has tied itself to Milei's economic policies. The polls suggest a close contest, with many former Milei voters undecided or leaning towards other options.
