With the coronation of Serge Massa As the “super ministry” that will manage Economy, Production and Agriculture, the Front of All has already defined who will replace the Tigrens as president of the Chamber of Deputies.
the chosen one is Cecilia Moreaua legislator close to Massa and a benchmark for the Renovating Front, who today serves as deputy head of the Frente de Todos bloc, which commands German Martinezpresident’s man Alberto Fernandez.
Allied in turn Maximo Kirchner, gained more and more influence in the negotiations inside and outside the heterogeneous ruling bloc. But she is resisted by Together for Changewhich qualifies it as “patoteril” and “little warm”.
Together I could seek to block the arrival, although mario nigripresident of the parliamentary interbloc, assures that for the moment “there have only been reports” and that the opposition “does not officially have any name”, nor does it come from the Frente de Todos.
“My opinion is that the first minority elects the president of the Chamber”, he remarked in this regard, when being interviewed on Radio con Vos. “How are we going to resolve it on Monday at an interblock meeting? The idea is that we all have a common position”.
In general, it is the ruling party that presides over the Deputies, although in practice it does not have the majority. A rule that within the Lower House is named as “Doctrine Carrio”, who with the arrival of Mauricio Macri to the presidency, presented the arguments and tipped the balance so that Emilio Monzo would hold that position.
but the same Elisa Carrio raised after the legislative victory of Together in 2021, that the issue should have been María Eugenia Vidal who took the place of Massa. “Together for Change could go for the presidency of the Chamber of Deputies,” said “Lilita.” And she repeated in statements to TN: “Massa has lost the presidency of the Chamber of Deputies because it belongs to the first minority”.
“We can stop the quorum in both chambers and thold the presidency of the Chamber of Deputiesyes That makes the difference. And no other political force that is not Together for Change can achieve it ”, he rightly endorsed. Maria Eugenia Vidal in a PRO match on Twitch.
Beyond Carrió and his change of position, the tradition Argentina in Deputies indicates that the governing party holds the presidency of the chamber. Y since the return of democracy in 1983, there was only one attempt by opposition blocs to seize the chair. And it did not prosper.
So, various sectors came together after the defeat of Kirchnerism in 2009when Edward Felner He was President of the House of Representatives. And the only time an opposition bloc held the Presidency of Deputies was between December 5 and 20, 2001.
In the elections of October of that year, the government of the Alliance with Fernando de la Rua as president, he had suffered a defeat at the polls against Peronism, which with the majority blocs in both chambers appointed Ramon Door as provisional president of the Senate Eduardo Camano as President of the House of Representatives.
After the resignation of Carlos “Chacho” Alvarez in October 2000, De la Rúa did not have a vice president, so door and bedwho were in the line of succession. occupied the Executive for brief periods before the election of Eduardo Duhalde.
The memory of that fateful series of events that led to the worst political crisis of the last 40 years is enough for many not to want to repeat the “hex”. But a minority group of hawks could try to tip the scales with the “the worse the better”.
