Polls have closed in Argentina’s presidential elections, with the leading candidates highlighting sharp contrasts between the country’s political center and its margins amid a severe economic crisis.

Leading polls ahead of the vote on Sunday were far-right libertarian Javier Milei; center-right Patricia Bullrich, a former security minister; and current economy minister Sergio Massa. Each is vying for the nation’s trust at a moment of widespread disillusionment with the country’s elite and its management of the country.

After casting his vote in Buenos Aires on Sunday, current president Alberto Fernández celebrated the nation’s democracy on the social media platform X. Boasting lengthy experience in national politics, she recently has worked to refresh her image to appeal to younger voters, uploading viral challenges to YouTube and making reference in interviews to her relationship with her cousin, singer Fabiana Cantilo.
