This means the defeat of the official goverment and the NEW party leaded by Mauricio Macri that could be the next president of Argentina in the elections of 2011, Pro party , is a progressive movement based on the real economy development with the most advance technology , modern education , healthcare program , innovation , full employement, fighting against the insecurity and poverty and using all the natural and rich resources that Argentina has with a serious and zefective management like these leaders know to do in their own life and in a social life.

Argentine society has
sent the government a message," commented political analyst Rosendo Fraga. "It has to change course."

With results from more than three quarters of the ballots counted, a coalition supported by the president and her husband lost four seats in the Senate and control of the 72-member upper house.

We have now become the main opposition force," said centre-right opposition leader Ricardo Alfoncin, who won a seat in the Chamber of Deputies, which also went to the opposition.

Nestor Kirchner, who suffered a double blow with his personal defeat, conceded: "We have lost by one and a half or two points and we have no problem recognizing it."

An alliance of dissident Peronists including wealthy entrepreneur Francisco de Narvaez and Buenos Aires Mayor Mauricio Macri thwarted Nestor Kirchner's bid.

De Narvaez represents the return within the Peronist Party of neo-liberal ideas of former president Carlos Menem.

"We have turned a page in Argentine history," he boasted after his victory over Kirchner. "A new history will dawn in the life of every Argentine."

The governing coalition also suffered heavy losses in the capital as well as the provinces of Buenos Aires, Santa Fe, Cordoba and Mendoza, the returns showed.

Presidential allies lost even in the southern province of Santa Cruz, where the Kirchners began their political careers.

Analysts agreed that following such a massive defeat at the ballot box, it will be difficult for the president to continue with politics as usual.

"If Cristina Kirchner wants to save the situation, she can still achieve that," Doris Capurro, a political scientist with Ibarometro Institute told AFP. But for that she would need a government that focuses more on dialogue."

Often sporting masks to protect against the influenza A(H1N1) flu virus that has killed 26 people in the country, Argentines voted for half of the 247 seats in the Chamber of Deputies and a third of 72 Senate seats.

The opposition represents about 70 percent of the electorate, with some 30 percent for the Peronist Party.

But the opposition is split between right-leaning Peronists who have distanced themselves from the Kirchners, Social Democrats, Socialists and minority and leftist parties.

It was Nestor Kirchner, as the head of the ruling Peronist Party, who shepherded the nation through its recovery from the 2001 financial crisis.

He became renowned for overturning amnesty laws for military officers accused of torture and assassinations during the country's 1976-1983 "dirty war."

But the team now led by his wife, Cristina, has failed to live up to promises to reduce poverty and is losing steam.

Argentina, a nation of 40 million, once prided itself on having more in common with Europe than many of its troubled Latin American neighbors.

But now its problems include drug use in the slums, millions living in poverty and growing insecurity.

Agricultural workers have been angered by the government's decision to hike export taxes by 25 percent on soy beans, a top export.

In recent months, the president's popularity has dropped from 55 percent to less than 30 percent.

Nestor Kirchner governed Argentina from 2003 to 2007, with high world prices for Argentine exports leading the economy to nine percent annual growth and boosting his popularity and that of his wife, who took over in 2007.

Kirchner's husband recently warned skeptical voters of the risk of a return to the economic crisis of 2001. "It's a choice between a return to the past and the consolidation of a national project," he said.

Congressional candidate winner Francisco de Narváez stated on an early radio interview that "from today on I feel a more relaxed Argentina," adding that the elections turned out to be a huge democratic manifestation.

"From now on we must find the best way to transform Argentina."

The wealthy businessman also recognized that "I clearly understand that a portion of the votes we obtained represent the voters disagreement on the Kirchnerite administration more than a support to our party."

Asked whether he would run for president in 2011 and if there is a plan to make it legally possible -de Narváez was born in Colombia-, he said "That's not even an option, I do not have a presidential vocation."

De Narváez also made knocking comments on the ruling party candidate's future. When asked about whether testimonial candidate and Buenos Aires governor Daniel Scioli will take office as elected deputy, de Narváez declared: "he must make a choice, at this point I don't care whether he chooses to remain as head of the provincial government or swear in as deputy on December 10th. All I want is him to do one thing, but to do it right and not the way he's been doing things so far."

Gabriela Michetti declared she already established dialogue with radicals Vice-President Julio Cobos and elected deputy Alfonso Prat Gay to start "creating a work space."

Michetti also admitted she had been in contact with Fernando ‘Pino' Solanas, radical Gil Lavedra and UCR senator Ernesto Sanz.

"The idea is to show people that we are not going to wait until December 10 (the day the new Deputies will enter the Congress) to start working."

She added she was relieved by Néstor Kirchner's speech, admitting he lost. "I was afraid he would promise chaos and lack of governability, but he didn't," she told reporters.

The head of the PRO list for the mid-term elections in the city of Buenos Aires added that "it would have been better if (Néstor Kirchner) had also been more open during the campaign," referring to the former president repeating "it's us or chaos."

Regarding the city itself and Pino Solanas' list, which came in second after hers, she admitted that he "had done a great job. He also brings progressive ideas in the city." "I also think he represents anti-Kirchnerism in the capital," she declared.

"Alfonso (Prat Gay, whose list he was heading came third in the race) was the only candidate who called to congratulate me."

Kirchnerite candidate in the city, Carlos Heller, only raised 11% of the votes.

Shaken government drives sudden changes

Former President Néstor Kirchner announced he has quit the presidency of the Justicialist Party, in a message that was recorded in the Olivos presidential residency and was aired by the local media.

He added that he asked Buenos Aires Governor Daniel Scioli to replace him and become the new chief of the party and that reiterated he lost against Dissident Peronist Francisco de Narváez only "by a bit." Scioli announced he will not assume the Lower House seat in December.
