Elections in the UBA: The left lost its only power and LLA came third in most cases
The elections left a scenario with few changes in the management of most of the faculties.
In Economics they obtained 7%, in Medicine 5.7% and in Social Sciences 3.08%, while in Engineering they achieved their best performance with 17%.
Last week, the University of Buenos Aires (UBA) held elections that mobilized more than 300,000 students qualified to vote in student centers and in the Boards of Directors of the 13 faculties.
The elections left a scenario with few changes in the conduct of most academic units, although with some interesting results.
One of the most important facts was the loss, on the part of the left, of the only faculty in which it still maintained control of the student faculty.
The change occurred in Veterinary Medicine, where the AFV list reached 47% of the votes and displaced the EVET, linked to the Workers' Party, which obtained 36.2% and retained only one counselor. With this result, this sector ceased to be a leader in UBA faculties, closing a cycle that had begun in the early 2000s
.Another notable fact was the performance of the groups identified with La Libertad Avanza, which presented themselves in four schools under the seal “We Are Free” and, in most cases, managed to place third.
In general terms, several schools kept their conduct unchanged. In Architecture, Design and Urbanism, the group The Module retained the center with 54.8% of the votes, while in Exact and Natural Sciences, Exact Identity led the results with 36%. A similar scenario occurred in Philosophy and Letters, where The Collective ranked first with around 40% of the votes
.
also registered in other faculties. In Medicine, Nuevo Espacio obtained 71.7% of the votes, while in Economics it reached 72.8%. In law, the Reform Front maintained its leadership with 53%, although with a reduction in electoral flow compared to previous elections. In Psychology, the EDI list prevailed with 49%, followed by Impulse with 33%
.In Pharmacy and Biochemistry, the Students list by FFyB obtained a large 84% of the votes, while in Dentistry the AFO group reached 92%. In Agronomy, the LAI list topped the vote with 45%, followed by ATP
with 34%.One of the changes also occurred in the Faculty of Social Sciences, where the list The UES obtained 35.4% and surpassed La 15, which reached 33.2%, in an election with tight margins.
