In Argentina, the election and mandate of local authorities is regulated in each of the provinces’ Constitutions. The institution of recall of local authorities is not contemplated in every province and the requirements and effects may vary. Some of the provinces that regulate the recall at provincial and municipal level are: Buenos Aires, Catamarca, Corrientes, Chaco, Chubut, Entre Rios, La Rioja, Misiones, Neuquén, Rio Negro, San Luis, San Juan, Santiago del Estero and Tierra del Fuego. In the provinces where recall is allowed, the population is enabled to directly file a petition to recall the mandate of the locally elected authorities, the head of the local administration, the municipal governor, and the members of the council (both directly elected by citizens). The recall is regulated as a citizens’ right and it amounts to a “no-confidence” vote due to the poor management of the community. The participation in the recall vote is compulsory and the percentage to approve the recall varies depending on the province.
