Chaco suspends PASO primaries for one year; Zdero signs law

The province of Chaco suspended its open, simultaneous, and mandatory primaries (PASO) for one year after the legislature approved Law 4262-Q with 17 votes. The vote exposed internal divisions within Peronism, with legislator Katia Blanc playing a decisive role. This is a provincial electoral reform that could signal broader political trends ahead of national elections.
