Buenos Aires, Feb 23 (NA) – Libertarian Bartolomé Abdala will be re-elected this Tuesday as provisional president of the Senate in a preparatory session where the body's authorities for this year will be elected, according to legislative sources informed to the Noticias Argentinas Agency. The Senate was called for 12 to elect the provisional president and the three vice presidencies, as well as the heads of the Parliamentary and Administrative Secretariats. Legislative sources informed the Noticias Argentinas Agency that it is confirmed that the San Luis legislator, Bartolomé Abdala, will continue for a third year, although at some point it had circulated that the officialism could lean towards one of the legislators who entered in December. Meanwhile, the Peronist interblock has not yet defined who will occupy the vice presidency, which has been vacant since December when the Neuquén senator's term, Silvia Sapag, ended. In the first vice presidency, meanwhile, the radical Carolina Losada will continue, while it has not yet been decided who will correspond to the third vice presidency, since until now it was held by the Córdoba deputy Alejandra Vigo, who today has a block of only two members. The options on the table One of the variants is that if the three Convicción Federal legislators leave the Peronist interblock and form another bench together with the Salta deputy Flavia Royon, that body will have four legislators and will surpass PRO and any other provincial force, so it will correspond to that place. Peronist senators Guillermo Andrada (Catamarca), Carolina Moisés (Jujuy) and Sandra Mendoza (Tucumán) want to leave the interblock led by José Mayans (Formosa) due to internal differences not only in its leadership but also due to weariness with the agenda imposed by former President Cristina Kirchner, parliamentary sources informed the Noticias Argentinas Agency. Andrada, Moisés and Mendoza are part of the Convicción Federal (CF) bench together with Fernando Salino (San Luis), who presides over it, and Fernando Rejal (La Rioja).
