President Javier Milei appears with a strong advantage over the main opposition parties in the voting intention measurements ahead of the 2027 presidential elections.
A recent national survey by DC Consultores placed La Libertad Avanza (LLA) in first place, with 42.6% of preferences, while the Peronism, led by the communist Axel Kicillof, came in second with 17.1%. The difference between the two parties reaches 25.5 percentage points.
The survey, conducted between October 27 and November 1 with 1,862 effective cases, shows a significant gap between the ruling party and its main political competitors. The results correspond to the question about which political party the respondents would choose if the next elections were held today.
President Javier Milei.
Behind La Libertad Avanza and Peronism is a new expression of center-right, which gathers 16.2%. Further back is Kirchnerism, with 8.5%, while the Left Front reaches 4%. An 8.7% still does not know which party they would vote for, and 2.9% chose another alternative.
The numbers show that Milei's party maintains a significant difference compared to the various expressions of Peronism, in a scenario where the opposition still presents a fragmented electoral offer.
Additionally, adding the support for LLA and a new center-right party, the total support for such an option would reach almost 59%. On the other hand, the sum of Peronism and Kirchnerism amounts to only 25% of the votes.

The electoral scenario in the event of a Kicillof victory
Another relevant result from the survey appears when asking what Argentinians believe would happen if communist Axel Kicillof won the 2027 presidential elections.
In that hypothetical scenario, 57.3% responded that the first thing that would happen would be the return of inflation and monetary issuance.
In contrast, only 20.3% thought that daily life would improve. Additionally, 12.1% indicated that there would be a bigger state and social plans, while 5.7% believe that not much would change, and 4.6% anticipated an increase in taxes.

The image of Milei and his main competitors
Regarding the image of the leaders, President Milei has a 43.8% positive rating and a 55.1% negative rating. Among the opposition leaders, Axel Kicillof receives a 31.5% positive image and a 60.2% negative one, while Cristina Kirchner achieves a 29.8% positive and a 66.7% negative.
Sergio Massa presents the most unfavorable rating of the four leaders: a 20.2% positive image versus a 74% negative.
On the other hand, the study asked about a potential elimination of the PASO for 2027. 53.8% stated that they never served and always represented an expense, while 25% believed that their disappearance would mainly benefit the ruling parties.
The DC Consultores survey was conducted nationally among the voting population through mobile devices. It contains a sample of 1,862 cases and a margin of error of +/- 3 percentage points.
