In Posadas, Misiones, a new Municipal Electoral Regime project has been proposed to the Honorable Deliberative Council. The initiative aims to increase local autonomy by establishing a Municipal Electoral Tribunal to oversee local elections, thereby reducing the oversight of the Provincial Electoral Tribunal. The proposal includes implementing a Single Paper Ballot (BUP) to lower costs and prevent tampering, introducing a ‘Clean Slate’ (Ficha Limpia) policy to bar candidates with specific criminal convictions, and expanding voting rights to 16 and 17-year-olds and registered foreign residents. In addition to electoral changes, Posadas has introduced a proposal to reform the Measured Parking System (SEM). This initiative suggests providing one hour of free parking via a digital platform and eliminating mandatory payments on weekends and holidays. To stimulate local commerce, the project includes a ‘Tax Refund’ program where users making purchases over $10,000 at participating businesses could receive parking discounts. In Entre Ríos, government officials have expressed support for decoupling provincial elections from national ones to foster independent local debate. The province has launched a training cycle to prepare citizens for the 2027 provincial elections following the decision to implement the Single Paper Ballot (BUP) system. This training program, conducted by the Ministry of Government and Labor in collaboration with the National University of Entre Ríos, targets students, teachers, senior citizens, and people with disabilities through voting simulations. Minister of Government and Labor, Manuel Troncoso, emphasized that the implementation requires significant preparation to ensure election quality and to allow citizens to vote with autonomy and security. As of late October 2026, the training program in Entre Ríos has commenced active sessions.
