New Polls Show Milei’s Lead Narrowing as a 2027 Runoff Looks Likely

Overview

• New polling published Monday points to a 2027 runoff, with Tendencias putting Javier Milei at 38.1% and Axel Kicillof at 33%.
• Zentrix’s March survey finds Milei’s image down to 40.3% positive and 51% negative, placing him behind Patricia Bullrich in an image ranking.
• Both outlets tie the slide to pocketbook pain and scandal, citing the $Libra cryptocurrency case and questions about Chief of Staff Manuel Adorni’s assets and travel.
• Tendencias reports a darker social mood as 55.7% now rate the government negatively and 41.3% say they cannot make it to month’s end, with most respondents rejecting the proposed labor reform.
• One Tendencias result lifts leftist lawmaker Myriam Bregman to third at 11.4%, underscoring a fragmented opposition without a single dominant challenger.
