For both genders, the second favorite party was Todos, the JxC was the party with the highest female voting intention, and LLA for males. The was also a clear division among different age groups, the older generations had a higher voting intention for the classic ideologies on Todos and JxC, meanwhile, the younger generations were more inclined to vote for new parties such as LLA.

Argentina’s main problems

Without doubt, one of the main concerns of the Argentine population is inflation. Since 1946, the country has been terrorized by the constant and expected price increases, creating economic turmoil for households, companies, and the government. Between 2022 and 2023, inflation started to rise again reaching 72 percent in 2022 and expected to reach almost 100 percent in 2023. The second main problem, according to public opinion, is corruption, which could be one of the main reasons why the Argentine voting population is turned to vote for parties other than the current ruling party.
