Presidential Approval Ratings for Javier Milei in Argentina

A new survey conducted by the political analysis consultancy Isasi/Burdman revealed that President Javier Milei maintains a 49% positive image against a 41% negative image, and 48% of those surveyed approve of his management, in contrast to the 45% who do not. Furthermore, four out of five voters for Milei in the runoff continue to support the current president, with a 79% positive opinion towards him.

According to the survey, Milei shows a better positive image than his predecessors in the first 10 months of managing the Rivadavia chair. In comparison, Mauricio Macri recorded a 45% positive image in October 2016, and Alberto Fernández had a 40% in October 2020.

When asked who they would vote for in the 2025 legislative elections, 43% lean towards candidates who support Milei. Regarding political force preferences, 28% would support La Libertad Avanza (LLA), followed by non-Kirchnerist Peronism with 16%, the PRO with 13%, Unión por la Patria with 9%, among others.

Despite the stability in Milei's image over the last 10 months, the majority of voters supporting Milei also endorse a possible electoral alliance between LLA and the PRO. However, a significant percentage disapproves of Milei's veto of the University Financing Law and the president's stance to veto all laws affecting his fiscal policy.

In relation to the main problems in the country, the survey shows that poverty and corruption are the most prominent concerns, relegating inflation and insecurity to third and fourth place, respectively. The survey was conducted between October 12 and 17, 2024, among 2057 people aged 16 and older across Argentina, with a margin of error of +/- 2.14 for the aggregate.
