Frente de Todos

The Frente de Todos (translated as "Everyone's Front") was a centre-left political coalition of political parties in Argentina formed to support President Alberto Fernández and Vice President Cristina Kirchner.

Fernández won the 2019 general election with over 48% of the vote, defeating incumbent Mauricio Macri in the first round. The coalition currently holds a minority in both the Argentine Senate and the Chamber of Deputies; in both houses it is conformed as a unified bloc. It was replaced by Unión por la Patria in June 2023, in order to compete in the general election on October of that year.

The Frente de Todos is a coalition that seeks to create a union of all sectors of Peronism (including Kirchnerism), progressivism and social democracy, including centrist political parties, centre-left and left-wing, in order to avoid the continuation of the Mauricio Macri presidency.

The front has the support of most of the labor unions, such as the General Confederation of Labour (CGT) and the Argentine Workers' Central Union (CTA), as well as many social organizations known as piqueteros.

After former Vice President Daniel Scioli's defeat in the 2015 general election and the subsequent fragmentation of Peronism, former President Cristina Fernández de Kirchner created a new movement, called Citizen's Unity, which sought to win a majority in Congress and defeat the ruling Cambiemos coalition. However, in the 2017 legislative election, Citizen's Unity only came second with 25.21% of the votes.

On 12 June 2019, the Peronist Front for All coalition was announced through a video that was posted on the official social media accounts of Alberto Fernández and Cristina Kirchner.

In the primary elections of 11 August 2019, the coalition won with 49.49% compared to 32.94% for Juntos por el Cambio. Again in the 27 October elections, Alberto Fernandez won, with 48.24%, compared to 40.28% for Juntos por el Cambio.

On 10 December 2019, with a huge march in favor of the new government, Alberto Fernández and Cristina Fernández de Kirchner, sworn-in in as President and Vice President of Argentina. At nightfall, in the Casa Rosada, the assumption of the new president was celebrated with dances, lights, fireworks and speeches.
