The Government of Tucumán formally called elections for all provincial offices for Sunday August 28 when Governor José Alperovich seek re-election with the national Health Minister, Juan Manzur.
The official decree was signed today by Governor Jose Alperovich, and Interior Minister Edmundo Jimenez, although it will be numbered and published in the Official Gazette on Monday due to holidays tomorrow and Friday.
In the elections that will take place just two weeks after the Open Primary and Compulsory Simultaneous national, was elected governor, 49 legislators, 19 mayors, 93 commissioners and nearly 200 rural councils in the province.
The date was determined based on the provisions of the provincial constitution passed in 2006 mandating that the voting takes place two months before the change of mandate, which takes place October 28. The announcement was made by Alperovich amid controversy over the decision of the Administrative Disputes Chamber which declared invalid the article of the Constitution which provided that the Provincial Electoral Board (JEP) is composed of the President of the Supreme Court of Justice, the owner of the Legislature and the Attorney General, a position formerly occupied by the Public Prosecutor of the Court local judiciary.
