In a surprising turn of events, Argentina's capital Buenos Aires saw a significant political shift as President Javier Milei's radical libertarian party secured a landmark victory. Manuel Adorni, Milei's leading candidate, garnered more than 30% of votes, disrupting the center-right stronghold held by former President Mauricio Macri's PRO party.
This victory highlights the rise of hard-right factions globally and boosts Milei's campaign as a key alternative to the leftist populist movement known as Kirchnerismo.
