  Argentina's ruling party changes name ahead of presidential elections

  

  Argentina's ruling Frente de Todos (FdT) Wednesday changed its name ahead of this year's presidential elections but continues to be unable to join forces behind a unified candidate after President Alberto Fernández said he would not be running and Vice President Cristina Fernández de Kirchner insisted she has been disenfranchised, which is technically inaccurate because all appeals in her conviction for corruption have not been exhausted. Hence, the current Peronist alliance has adopted the name “Unión por la Patria” (Union for the Homeland).
