Argentines have started voting in primary elections to test the Political mood in the country. Voters are expected to punish the ruling center-left Peronist coalition due to high inflation and a cost-of-living crisis. The primary is mandatory for most adults and serves as a dress rehearsal for the general election in October. The results will indicate the favorite candidate for the presidency and have implications for Argentina's farm sector, currency, bonds, and debt deal with the International Monetary Fund. The economic crisis has left many disillusioned with the main political parties, opening the door for a potential surprise win by a far-right libertarian candidate.
