Policies that, together, have provided new support for part of the middle class urban and demonstrates its success unprecedented in the city of Buenos Aires, ruled by the conservative Mauricio Macri.

Thousands of people took to the streets of Buenos Aires after the close of the polls to participate in a festival in the Plaza de Mayo and celebrate the victory of their candidate, who began the day with a moving evocation of the figure of Nestor Kirchner , to cast their vote in the Patagonian city of Rio Gallegos, where he has fixed his family residence.

"Cristinazo"
