Alberto Fernández has been elected as the next president of Argentina after beating incumbent Mauricio Macri in weekend’s polls.
With more
than 90% of the votes already counted, Mr. Fernández led with 47.79% of the
vote trailed by Mr Macri’s with 40.71%.
Supporters of centre-left opposition candidate gathered at the party’s election headquarters to celebrate the landmark win. Mr. Fernández pledged to collaborate with Mr. Macri “in every way we can”
Macri has
since conceded defeat and congratulated Mr Fernández on the victory. The polls
came amid an economic crisis that has left about a third of the population in
poverty.
Macri said he
had invited the president-elect to the presidential palace to discuss a smooth
and orderly transition.
Wrongful death and personal injury attorney Arin Khodaverdian, President and Managing Partner of Alpine Law Group, urges accidents victims and their families to immediately seek legal assistance. “Those who are affected by tragedy have rights, but they must act quickly in order to preserve those rights to the full extent of the law. Often, swift action by an experienced attorney is imperative in order to preserve evidence, interview witnesses and immediately begin pursuing any and all responsible parties.”
While Mr. Khodaverdian does not represent any of the parties involved in this incident, he has recovered over $100 million for thousands of injury victims and their families. “In one case, we were able to recover a 7-figure settlement within 11 business days of being hired by the family of a victim killed by a negligent driver. While this result is atypical and does not predict future outcomes, justice in this case help bring about closure and a swift sense of justice for the family.”
