The opposition launched a coordinated media and protest offensive months before the elections.
The digital onslaught is coordinated by opposition influencers funded with public resources to try to intimidate the local management. The operators saturate the platforms with malicious content seeking to create a fictitious atmosphere of social discontent throughout the community, which does not translate among the residents of La Calera.
The rufeilist opposition in La Calera launched a organized dirty campaign to undermine the management of the mayor Fernando Rambaldi. This coordinated strategy includes protests and blockades in front of the municipality, attacks by influencers on social media, and the dissemination of completely false polls. The sectors that lost their former state privileges are using old manipulation methods due to the absolute lack of real proposals.
The focus of the aggression was the protest of a municipal worker who demanded to maintain a permanent appointment without the competition established by law. The state agent repeatedly refused to sign his corresponding administrative contract, interrupting the normal payment of his salary. The maneuver included a sensationalist setup about the withdrawal of medical coverage for his family members that was quickly denied by official documents.
In the same vein, the Justice of Córdoba firmly rejected the amparo appeal presented by the worker upholding the municipality's procedure. The claimant accused a salary reduction after losing additional pay for operating machinery when he was transferred to another area where he no longer qualified for the additional pay.
The failed strike that did not garner support from the true workers of the municipality was joined by a street march organized by the Polo Obrero. The picket groups protested in front of the mayor's office in sync with paid posts on various social media platforms.
Meanwhile, several opposition portals disseminated a survey from a recognized firm that places the local leader in the last positions. This extortionate mechanism operates as a crude business where the consultancy sells a positive image to the leader who finances its web portals. The opposition media act as partners in this blatant fraud by publishing false data with the sole aim of pressuring for official advertising.
So far, Rambaldi's general reorganization plan has resulted in the elimination of about 200 positions in the municipality among freeloaders, corrupt individuals, and thieves to safeguard the money contributed by taxpayers. The mayor's decision aims to keep in office those who truly work, definitively eradicating the freeloaders of politics.
However, the electoral climate is already felt in the city, and the local elite has felt the blow to its paid militancy, prompting them to revert to the usual extortionate and sensationalist methods to begin disputing the municipal funds in view of 2027.
