SaltWire's Atlantic regional weather forecast for October 17, 2023] | SaltWireBUENOS AIRES - Argentine conservative Patricia Bullrich, who many pegged just months ago as favorite to win the country's presidential election, is now hoping her promises of economic stability and a tough-on-crime platform can keep her in the race.
"You have to have a backbone to govern this country," Bullrich, the candidate for the Together for Change coalition, told Reuters at a recent press event."I think I have shown courage, determination, and clarity of ideas." Bullrich is facing front-runner libertarian economist Javier Milei, who is promising more extreme policies, and economy minister Sergio Massa. With the polls having proved unreliable previously, she retains a chance to make the second round.Bullrich, born into a traditional Argentine political family, began her activism in the 1970s in the Peronist Youth. Her family was forced into exile during the military dictatorship before returning.
"One is a leap into the void and the other is more of the same thing," said Cristian Ritondo, a candidate for the lower house of Congress on Bullrich's list, who has known her since the 1980s. He said she was always working at a"frenetic" pace. "She has tried different things, which has been criticized, but it's because she was looking for those who were willing to truly make change," she said.
Bullrich, replying to Reuters, said that the coalition - win or lose - would be a strong political force with around 10-11 governors and large presence in Congress."We are going to be very solid," she said.
