Germán Font’s consultant attributed the win in Marcos Juárez to a local agenda and a cross-cutting coalition
Santiago Comadira said the election was explained by the city’s own climate, a change proposal and a broader coalition than Peronism. He also warned that the result should not be automatically projected onto the rest of Córdoba.
Santiago Comadira, consultant to Germán Font’s campaign in Marcos Juárez, said the victory responded to an interpretation focused on local realities, rather than a provincial or national contest, according to Perfil.
According to that outlet, Font won 7,075 votes, or 46.09% of the total. Pedro Dellarossa finished with 19.99% and Gerardo Pasquali with 17.31%. Turnout was 64.15%, nearly five points below the 2022 municipal election.
In remarks quoted by Perfil, Comadira said there were attempts to nationalize the election, but he considered they did not gain traction because Marcos Juárez was debating a city model. In that line, he said voters perceived the end of a political cycle and were looking for an alternative for a new stage.
The consultant also argued that the win cannot be read solely in partisan terms. In his view, Font’s candidacy brought together Peronism, but also sectors of civil society, institutions, independent professionals and voters without a fixed political alignment.
Still according to Perfil, Comadira stressed that the result should not be mechanically extrapolated to the rest of Córdoba. He said each locality has its own dynamic and that there is no single formula to replicate an election like the one in Marcos Juárez.
On low turnout, he said the challenge for campaigns is no longer only to present an electoral offer, but also to persuade citizens to go vote, especially in subnational elections.
