Senado inicia debate sobre reforma electoral de Milei

El Senado argentino inició este miércoles el tratamiento de la reforma electoral impulsada por el gobierno de Javier Milei. La reunión de la Comisión de Asuntos Constitucionales expuso tensiones entre el oficialismo y aliados sobre el manejo de Ficha Limpia.

La sesión informativa se realizó en el Salón Arturo Illia del Palacio Legislativo y fue presidida por el senador Agustín Coto. María Luz Alegría Landívar, asesora del Ministerio del Interior, defendió el proyecto integral de 78 artículos que incluye la eliminación de las PASO, cambios en partidos políticos y la incorporación de Ficha Limpia.

Landívar señaló que existen 44 partidos nacionales y 710 distritales habilitados, y propuso elevar requisitos de afiliación, como en Buenos Aires donde pasarían de 4.000 a cerca de 10.000 afiliados. También argumentó que las PASO representan entre el 30% y el 40% del costo de las elecciones.

Aliados dialoguistas buscan tratar Ficha Limpia por separado, ya que reúne mayor consenso, mientras el oficialismo prefiere mantener el paquete completo. El debate continúa sujeto a nuevas conversaciones y Coto dispuso un cuarto intermedio.
