Clean Record: Rovira admitted that he changed the votes of his two senators at Milei's request.

The provincial deputy of Misiones, former governor Carlos Rovira, remains the absolute political boss in that province. The two national senators who voted against Ficha Limpia, Carlos Arce and Sonia Rojas Decut, did so because he ordered them to. And it was he himself who revealed at an event in front of more than a hundred people that he made that decision because he had been asked to do so by the Javier Milei government .

He said it, more or less like this: "I ordered Arce and Rojas Decut to vote against Clean Record. You know that we have to give governability to the President . And I speak with all the leaders, including Milei. He asked us to vote against it ."

Rovira had to come clean about what was a national political scandal because he was standing in front of almost his entire Misiones leadership , and because it was one of his libertarian allies, legislator Victoria Cáceres, who asked to speak to ask "the Boss" what would happen from now on with the Clean Record project that Rovira's own Renewal Front was pushing for a provincial vote . He won't do so now.

The information was revealed Thursday night on A24's WiFi.

Every Thursday, the leader of the Peronist movement in Misiones brings together his entire leadership, including mayors, legislators, and even provincial ministers, for a unique event dubbed "La Previa."

He summons his people to listen to him speak, and even question them, in the so-called "Hall of the Two Constitutions" in the provincial legislature.

Rovira's conclave begins around three in the afternoon and ends around six, when the local parliamentary sessions begin.

This Thursday, the "pre-election" was different from the others. Rovira postponed the review of the administration to ask for applause for the two national senators still embroiled in the Arce and Rojas Decut controversy .

Both voted against the partial approval of the Clean Record bill despite having publicly promised otherwise.

The law was defeated by those two opposing votes. The missionaries' vacillating position caused astonishment in the Senate.

Rovira defended them on "La Previa" and even asked for applause. In that context, he reportedly admitted in front of the large audience that he was the one who ordered the legislators to change their votes on the Clean Record following a request from the Casa Rosada.

Why did Rovira appoint Milei? Was there any negotiation between the Casa Rosada and Rovira to bring down the Clean Sheet?

"Yes," responded sources from the Misiones government.

The Casa Rosada denies it .

But several national senators, from cross-party groups, said off the record that the Casa Rosada "sounded" them out to find out if they were willing to leave the Senate chamber or vote against the Scandal Law.

The person who reportedly communicated the Casa Rosada's wishes to Rovira was not the Head of State, but rather his team of most influential advisors.

Everything was agreed upon at least three days before the vote .

Although the Peronist government in Misiones learned Wednesday afternoon that the province's two pro-government senators would vote contrary to what they had publicly stated.

Clarín reconstructed this plot thanks to the testimony of seven sources from the National Senate, the Casa Rosada, and the PJ (Party of the People's Party) in Misiones.

Arce and Decut spoke for weeks in interviews with the Misiones media about Clean Sheet: they assured that it was a good and necessary law and swore that they would vote in its favor .

It turns out that neither of them votes the way they want, but rather the way Rovira tells them they should vote .

Arce himself admitted this in an interview with the Guacurarí news agency.

"Our political leader, Carlos Rovira, always tells us to follow what people think and what people want; this is what shows us the way," he said in that report, in which he confirmed his support for the Clean Record Law.

In the meantime, there were calls from Buenos Aires to Misiones and everything changed.

But, beyond the legislators' contradictions regarding the Clean Record, there hasn't been any change in the actions of the two national senators from Misiones. They voted as the national ruling party wanted .

On Thursday's "La Previa," Rovira argued that he didn't like the law because it was "tailor-made to harm Cristina Kirchner."

A fundamental question arises, always following the logic that Rovira has told the truth about the National Government's request regarding a Clean Record.

Why did La Libertad Avanza push for the repeal of a law benefiting Cristina Kirchner?
