| Sumario: | The purpose of this paper is to analyze the political strategy of Roberto M. Ortiz (1938-1940) to erode “patriotic fraud” and normalize the electoral practices of Argentina in the late thirties. It is presumed that the president had oriented his institutional project seeking a re-democratization of the political system and for that purpose he promoted federal interventions to some provinces with fraudulent practices. His policy against fraud caused an unprecedented political situation in the ruling coalition, support of the Executive, which was aggravated when the president took license in july 1940. |
