Javier Milei presidential candidate of the La Libertad Avanza (Freedom Advances) party, speaks at the campaign closing event on Oct.18, 2023. Voters in Argentina head to the polls Sunday in a presidential runoff election that will determine whether South America's second-largest economy will take a rightward shift. Populist Javier Milei, an upstart candidate who got his start as a television talking head, has frequently been compared to former U.S. President Donald Trump. The highly polarizing election is forcing many to decide which of the two they consider to be the least bad option. "It would be incredible for Massa to win in this economic context or for Milei to win facing a candidate as professional as Massa."
