As no mayoral candidate won a majority in the first round, a runoff was held on 19 July, in which Horacio Rodríguez Larreta, of the governing Republican Proposal (PRO) party, defeated Martín Lousteau and his Organized Citizen Energy (ECO) coalition to become Chief of Government of Buenos Aires. Incumbent Chief of Government Mauricio Macri was term-limited, and instead ran a successful presidential campaign in October 2015. The City Legislature remained controlled by the governing Republican Proposal (PRO) party and its coalition, PRO Union. This was the first election in which the Single Electronic Ballot (Boleta Única Electrónica, BUE) voting system was implemented. Background The 2011 elections in Buenos Aires had resulted in the re-election of incumbent Chief of Government Mauricio Macri in the second round against FPV candidate Daniel Filmus. Macri's party, Republican Proposal (PRO), also remained the largest force in the City Legislature.https://www.pagina12.com.ar/diario/ultimas/subnotas/171950-54617-2011-07-10.html Página 12 El macrismo sumó dos bancas en la Legislatura 10 July 2011 5 March 2025 es The electoral laws of the City of Buenos Aires determined the local elections could not be held concurrently with the nationwide general election being held the same year. The election was thus set for 5 July 2015, with primaries being held on 26 April 2015. This was the first election in which the Single Electronic Ballot (Boleta Única Electrónica, BUE) voting system was implemented.https://chequeado.com/el-explicador/todo-lo-que-tenes-que-saber-sobre-la-boleta-unica-electronica-que-se-usara-en-la-ciudad/ Chequeado Todo lo que tenés que saber sobre la Boleta Única Electrónica que se usará en la Ciudad Tarricone Manuel 13 August 2023 5 March 2025 es The use of the new electronic system was subject to controversy and criticism from opposition figures, such as leading candidate Martín Lousteau, who claimed the system was not secure and transparent enough.https://www.lanacion.com.ar/politica/polemica-por-el-uso-de-la-boleta-electronica-en-la-eleccion-portena-general-nid1789353/ La Nación Polémica por el uso de la boleta electrónica en la elección porteña general 2 May 2015 13 March 2025 Serra Laura es Candidates Coalition Mayoral candidate (party)Prior political experience Vice mayoral candidate (party)Prior political experience Parties 75px|link=Republican Proposal Horacio Rodríguez Larreta (PRO)Cabinet Chief (2007–2015) Diego Santilli (PRO)National Senator (2013–2015) PRO PDP PD FE UCEDE MID UPL PAC 75px|link=Evolución (political coalition) Martín Lousteau (Ind.)Minister of Economy of Argentina (2007–2008) Fernando Sánchez (CC-ARI)National Deputy (2013–2017) UCR CC-ARI PS CF PSA 75px|link=Frente de Todos Mariano Recalde (PJ)President of Aerolíneas Argentinas (2009–2015) Leandro Santoro (UCR) PJ FR FPG FG PV ND Kolina PI CF NE PSOL FORJA PF PC PTP RxBA ParTE 75px|link=Self-determination and Freedom Luis ZamoraNational Deputy (2001–2005) Sergio Sallustio AyL 75px|link=Workers' Left Front Myriam BregmanNational Deputy (2015–2016) José Castillo PO PTS IS Results Primaries Mayoral primaries CoalitionListMayoral candidateCandidate votesOverall votesVotes%Votes%PRO UnionSigamos con el Cambio Let's Keep the Change GoingHoracio Rodríguez Larreta 529,452 882,421 47,98Hay Equipo We've Got a TeamGabriela Michetti 352,969 Organized Citizen EnergySuma+ Add+Martín Lousteau 332,225 413,465 22.48Transparencia y Gestión Transparency and AdministrationGraciela Ocaña 76,873 Abrimos BA We Open BAAndrés Borthagaray 4,367 Front for VictoryPodemos vivir mejor We Can Live BetterMariano Recalde 228,900 348,28218.94La Ciudad es el Otro The City is the OtherGabriela Cerruti 40,598 Frente Sí 'Yes' FrontAníbal Ibarra 37,930 Unidos por la Ciudad United for the CityCarlos Heller 26,881 Ciudad para Todos City for AllGustavo Fernando López 7,905 Revolución Urbana Urban RevolutionVíctor Ramos 3,380 Espacio Abierto Aluvión 'Barrage' Open SpaceCarlos Oviedo 2,688 Worker's Left FrontLista Unidad Unity ListMyriam Bregman 41,719 2.24 41,719 2.24Self-determination and FreedomCaminamos Preguntando We Walk and AskLuis Zamora 37,885 2.06 37,885 2.06 People's Way AllianceOtro Camino para Gobernar A Different Way to RuleClaudio Lozano 26,810 1.44 26,810 1.44Front for Buenos AiresFrente Renovador Renewal FrontGuillermo Nielsen 16,742 0.91 16,742 0.91MST -
