Electoral Deals Strengthen Mendoza Governor Alfredo Cornejo's Position

Governor Alfredo Cornejo has secured a degree of stability for the 2026 elections, in addition to advancing controversial mining projects, recently reinforced by a series of electoral agreements. To the political agreement Cornejo reached with the PRO leadership ahead of the February legislative elections, the confirmation of the Federal Renovator Party's continued participation in the Cambia Mendoza coalition has now been added. José María Videla Sáenz, Undersecretary of Institutional Relations for the Government of Mendoza and also a leader of the aforementioned political space, confirmed through his social networks that his party “will continue to be part of Cambia Mendoza.” “I am convinced that the path begun in 2015 is what Mendoza needs to grow and consolidate its development,” he posted on his “X” account, where he appeared alongside the president of the Mendoza Civic Radical Union (UCR), Andrés “Peti” Lombardi. He further added: “That is why, as we have been doing uninterruptedly for the last 10 years, the Federal Renovator Party will continue to be part of Cambia Mendoza.”
