The margins in La rioja and Santa Cruz were particularly slim, with differences of only 621 and 728 votes respectively. In Buenos Aires, the gap between Diego Santilli (LLA) and jorge Taiana (Fuerza Patria) stands at 46,600 votes – a margin Peronist representatives believe is susceptible to change.

the final scrutiny is taking place in Pasaje Dardo Rocha, La Plata, under the supervision of the district’s National Electoral Board, comprised of Jorge Di Lorenzo, Hilda kogan, and Alejo Ramos Padilla. The process involves a meticulous, table-by-table review of ballots, comparing official minutes with copies held by each political party. This differs considerably from the provisional count, which is overseen by the executive Branch.The final count, managed by the Judicial Branch, carries legal validity and allows for corrections to the initial results.
Peronist representatives are particularly focused on null and contested votes. According to the provisional count,there were 206,177 null votes,4,277 appealed votes,and 2,122 contested votes in Buenos aires. Any shifts in these categories could be decisive in determining which candidates secure seats in the Chamber of Deputies.
