Political and personal conflicts arose around the presidential candidacy of Richard Fort. National Deputy of the Congress of Virginia Gallardo (La Libertad Avanza) called for the resignation of businessmen, publishing in social networks photographs with him and his official position.
**Key facts:** — After Gallardo, who had split from the government, said "These days they want to pamper me in my life. Remember", it was made public in the press on the date of Fort's death (November 2013). — The candidate's deputy, Senator Carrozza, said, "Virginia did not come out with the proposed social security reforms." — Gallardo stated that his post was linked to personal, not political, reasons. He said, "Fort was an important person in his life", and did not seek to hide "other motives".
**Reaction to the story:** Carrozza checked the versions in the Gallardo case: he noted that the document was about a life project of Fort, motivated by the desire "not to waste our resources". "But the government uses it without consent," said the deputy. At the same time, he said, the party does not plan to submit any bills, but called for "non-standard use of the image".
**Additional details:** — Gallardo, a former member of the PRO party, lost in Corrientes with a result of 32.68% of the vote. — His predecessor did not win any of the elections in the province, relying on personal preferences: "Everything with me. PD: there are also archival data of this deputy, which he ran earlier".
The conflict raised questions about the personal and political future of the deputy, especially in the context of digital media.
