Argentine provincial and national political approval trends

Overview

Political surveys in Argentina indicate fluctuating approval ratings among provincial governors and municipal leaders. Data from CG Global Data and CB Consultora highlight a range of public perceptions across different regions. Hugo Passalacqua of Misiones leads in positive image ratings at approximately 55.1%, followed by Rolando Figueroa of Neuquén and Osvaldo Jaldo of Tucumán. At the lower end of the spectrum, Mendoza Governor Alfredo Cornejo ranks 20th out of 24 governors with a 49.6% negative image rating. Other leaders facing low approval include Ricardo Quintela of La Rioja and Gildo Insfrán of Formosa. In the municipal sphere, Paraná Mayor Rosario Romero was identified as one of the country’s most highly valued leaders. National confidence levels have reached record lows. According to the Government Confidence Index (ICG) from the Universidad Torcuato Di Tella, confidence fell by 5.9% in September to 1.94 points, marking a 21.4% cumulative decline since late last year. This figure matches the lowest levels recorded during President Javier Milei’s administration, specifically in September 2025 and July 2026. The decline was observed across all index components, with the most significant drop occurring in ‘concern for general interest’, which fell 12.3% to 1.50 points. Other declines included the general evaluation of management (-9.3%), the capacity to solve problems (-4%), efficiency in public spending (-3.5%), and the honesty of officials (-2.9%). This decline in public trust coincides with reports from INDEC showing a contraction in economic activity and rising poverty levels. Specifically, INDEC reported a 2.9% contraction in economic activity for July, while poverty rose by 4 points in the first half of 2026, affecting over 15 million people.
