Legislature Of Tucumán
The Honourable Legislature of Tucumán Province () is the unicameral legislative body of Tucumán Province, in Argentina. It convenes in the provincial capital, San Miguel de Tucumán. It comprises 49 legislators, elected in three multi-member electoral sections through proportional representation every four years. Elections employ the D'Hondt system. The electoral sections do not correspond to the 17 departments of Tucumán, but rather group different departments together. Its powers and responsibilities are established in the provincial constitution. The legislature is presided by the Vice Governor of Tucumán (presently Osvaldo Jaldo of the Justicialist Party), who is elected alongside the governor. History The first legislative body in Tucumán was the Hall of Representatives, which convened for the first time on 25 January 1822, during the governorship of José Víctor Posse to write the first Constitution of Tucumán. During its first years of existence, the Hall of Repre ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Founded by Juan Perón and his wife, First Lady Eva Perón, it was previously called the Peronist Party after its founder. Under Perón, the party followed a left-wing agenda based on his policies. It is overall the largest party in Congress, but the party's factual position was undermined by divisions that emerged in the 1990s and lasted until 2020. The PJ was rocked by a conflict between two Peronist tendencies, Kirchnerism, the main, left-wing populist faction of the party, and Federal Peronism, which was located on the centre and centre-right of the political spectrum. The division ended with the failure of Federal Peronism to challenge the dominating Kirchnerist faction in 2019. This was completed by Cristina Fernández de Kirchner ...
