Popular Dignity
Popular Dignity, also known as the Popular Dignity Party, is a far-right and neo-Nazi political party founded by Ernesto Raúl Habrá in 2015 to compete in the Buenos Aires Province elections as a district party. By 2019, the group would cover several districts, thus becoming a national party.
History
In 2017, the Popular Dignity Party tried to form a district alliance with the political party of the same style, the Popular Party. The National Electoral Chamber ratified a first instance ruling in which the judge Juan Manuel Culotta confirmed that the measure taken underlined the absence of official minutes and documents, with the respective signatures of party authorities, which would have confirmed their real and active existence. It stopped due to formal defects the payment of 72 million pesos to the Federal Union Front to finance the printing of ballots for the next Simultaneous and Mandatory Open Primaries. This political coalition was considered as a typical "electoral SME", and had registered 26 lists, 13 for deputies and 13 for senators.In 2019, the political group participated in the provincial elections in two districts without an alliance: in the province of Buenos Aires, in which it nominated Santiago Cuneo for governor, and in the city of Buenos Aires where they chose Leonardo Martínez Herrero as the city's head of government. The party failed to qualify for the general elections in any of its districts. In the presidential elections, they joined the far-right and neo-Nazi Patriot Front at the national level, and as a candidate nominated the neo-Nazi Alejandro Biondini.
In the 2021 Argentine legislative election, the party formed various district alliances, the majority of which were right-wing. In the province of Buenos Aires, they joined the right-wing libertarian front Avanza Libertad. In the city of Buenos Aires, as well as in the Mendoza Province, they joined the Patriot Front. In the Córdoba Province, they joined the far-right La Libertad Avanza. In the Catamarca Province, they joined the governative alliance Frente de Todos. In the Santiago del Estero Province, they joined the Labourist Patriotic Front.
