Incumbent President Mauricio Macri suffers a crushing defeat after Argentines voted in party primaries ahead of October's general election
Guests wait for the arrival of presidential candidate Alberto Fernandez during the primary elections, at a cultural centre in Buenos Aires, Argentina. August 11, 2019.
The first round of the presidential election will be held on October 27, with a run – if needed – set for November 24. If Fernandez was to register the same result in October, he would be president as Argentina's electoral law requires a candidate to gain 45 percent for outright victory, or 40 percent and a lead of at least 10 points over the nearest challenger.
Fernandez was a surprise nominee for the Peronist movement as Kirchner – already president from 2007-15 – was expected to run again.
