Javier Milei, president and leader of the La Libertad Avanza (LLA) party, officially launched the campaign for the upcoming legislative elections in the province of Buenos Aires with an event held at Club Atenas in La Plata on August 14, 2025. Milei presented the party's candidates for the provincial elections scheduled for September 7 and announced a tour across various cities in Buenos Aires province, starting with Junín. During his speech, Milei criticized the incumbent provincial government led by Governor Axel Kicillof and the national Kirchnerist political faction, accusing them of populism, mismanagement, and high public employment, which he described as a "nest of parasites" accounting for 40% of registered jobs in the province. He also made pointed remarks against Cristina Kirchner and the political establishment, highlighting issues such as insecurity and economic decline in the province. The event featured a "Nunca Más" banner, symbolizing opposition to Kirchnerism. In response, Governor Kicillof called for voters to express their discontent with the national government in the September elections and criticized Milei's campaign efforts. Additionally, La Libertad Avanza is finalizing its candidate lists, including José Luis Espert as the first candidate for deputy and the addition of former vedette Karen Reichardt as a candidate for the October legislative elections. Meanwhile, Kicillof is promoting the Movimiento Derecho al Futuro in Buenos Aires City ahead of the October 26 elections. The political climate is marked by heightened tensions between Milei's libertarian movement and the established Kirchnerist leadership as both prepare for the upcoming electoral contests.
