BUENOS AIRES, April 22 (UPI) -- President Javier Milei said he will send Congress a bill Wednesday to overhaul Argentina's electoral system, including eliminating primary elections and changing the way political parties are financed.
The proposal revives one of Milei's campaign promises and places renewed focus on a contentious issue in Argentina: how candidates are selected and how political campaigns are funded.
Milei announced the initiative on X, where he defended the reforms and intensified his criticism of the country's traditional political establishment.
"We are eliminating the PASO: enough of forcing Argentines to pay for the internal elections of the political caste," Milei wrote.
MAÑANA ENVIAMOS LA REFORMA ELECTORAL AL CONGRESO
