Libertarian Party Celebrates La Libertad Avanza’s Midterm Gains as Win for Liberty

The Libertarian Party congratulated Argentine President Javier Milei and his La Libertad Avanza coalition over the weekend on their performance in Argentina’s October 2025 mid-term elections, calling it a victory for libertarian ideas worldwide.

In an October 26 statement on social media, Libertarian National Committee Chair Steven Nekhaila lauded Milei’s movement as a clear endorsement of free-market reform and individual liberty. His remarks followed Argentina’s mid-term legislative elections held the same day, in which La Libertad Avanza secured around 40.8% of the vote nationwide and expanded its representation in both the Chamber of Deputies and the Senate.

“As Chair of the Libertarian National Committee, I congratulate the Javier Milei-led La Libertad Avanza party on its decisive mid-term victory in Argentina,” Nekhaila wrote. “This outcome marks a clear mandate for free-market reform, individual liberty, and the dismantling of state-centered economic chains.”

La Libertad Avanza’s showing strengthens Milei’s administration halfway through his term while dealing a significant setback to the ability of Argentina’s Peronist-aligned and center-left opposition to oppose him. In the weeks before the election, polling conducted by El País had La Libertad Avanza at 36.7% nationally and Fuerza Patria at 34.8%, suggesting a much closer contest than what ultimately occurred.

Nekhaila added that the coalition’s showing demonstrates that libertarian principles “are not only viable, but potent, even against entrenched political machines,” citing the party’s focus on voluntary exchange, limited government, and sound money. He further urged the Milei administration “to remain steadfast in its commitment to deregulation, fiscal discipline, and personal freedom.”

“A free society is the best foundation for prosperity, peace, and human flourishing,” Nekhaila concluded. “Congratulations to the people of Argentina for choosing that path.”
