"Argentines' Primary Election: Gauging Yearning for Change Amid Economic Turmoil"

Far-right populist Javier Milei has emerged as the biggest vote-getter in Argentina's presidential primary elections, shaking up the country's political establishment. Milei, known for his admiration of former US President Donald Trump, advocates for abolishing the Central Bank, denies climate change, opposes sex education, supports the legalization of the sale of human organs, and wants to ease gun ownership. With around 32% of the vote, Milei surpassed expectations and is now considered a serious contender for the presidency. The results reflect widespread discontent in Argentina, which is grappling with high inflation, rising poverty, and a depreciating currency. Voters are expressing their frustration with traditional politicians and seeking change.
