Dardo Pereyra heads the pro-government list seeking to retain the mayor’s office, while Alicia Giubergia seeks her fourth municipal term
In the municipal elections of Pasco, the current mayor Daniel Delbono will not seek re-election, but he will run for a seat in the Deliberative Council as part of the list headed by Dardo Pereyra, a leader of the Juntos Por Pasco party. The ruling party will seek to retain the mayor’s office in this electoral contest.

James Temple:
Marcos Ferace seeks re-election facing Elvio Mondino
In the Santiago Temple commune, in the Río Segundo de Córdoba department, municipal elections will be held with two competing lists. The current Peronist mayor, Marcos Ferace, seeks his reelection by heading the list “We Do United for Córdoba.” His main opponent is Elvio Mondino, a representative of the “Neighborhood Action Movement.”
Marcos Ferace, who has the support of the mayor of Córdoba, Martín Llaryora, is running to remain in office. At the end of May, Ferace denounced that unknown persons entered his home with the intention of threatening him so that he would abandon his candidacy. A note found in his house with the message “Get off or death” led Ferace to point directly at one of his opponents, Elvio Mondino.
Elvio Mondino represents the neighborhood allied to Together for Change and seeks to return to the mayorship after four years. Mondino has as a direct reference the four consecutive terms that he held between 2003 and 2019.
Santiago Temple, with a population of approximately 2,800, is the largest town in the region that will elect authorities in the upcoming elections.
Results
Marcos Ferace (United by Santiago Temple) was re-elected. He obtained more than 60% of votes against Elvio Mondino, from the Neighborhood Action Movement.

This electoral contest will be a heads-up between the two local political forces, and the result will determine the future of the commune of Washington and its direction in the coming years.
Results
The radical leader, María Marta Quinteros, retained the communal power of Washington for Together for Change, obtaining 52% of the votes against 47% for Ariel Quinteros, of United for Washington.
