One week after the ACV, an appeal by Amalia Granata against Locomotora Oliveras will be heard at the Santa Fe Constituent Convention.

A week after Alejandra "Locomotora" Oliveras was hospitalized due to an ischemic stroke that left her in critical condition, a challenge against her, filed by Amalia Granata before the Santa Fe Constituent Convention, will be heard next Monday afternoon.
"Oliveras does not reside in the province of Santa Fe," denounced the Somos Vida y Libertad (We Are Life and Liberty) party, headed by the provincial representative. On June 9, the group filed a complaint and request to challenge Alejanda "Locomotora" Oliveras' candidacy as a constitutional convention delegate in the April elections, in which the former boxer was elected to represent the Frente de la Esperanza (FE) party, signed by leader Eugenio Malaponte.
Legislative timing can differ from political reality, and also from reality: Oliveras suffered an ischemic stroke on Monday, July 14, and has since remained in intensive care in a state of compromised health. A week after this hospitalization, the Petitions, Powers, and Regulations Committee of the Constituent Assembly, which is to address the appeal, is scheduled to begin its session on Monday, July 21.
According to the official schedule, it will be the first committee to meet that day, starting at 3:00 PM. It is chaired by Beatriz Brouwer (La Libertad Avanza-Unite), with Lucas Galdeano (Unidos) as vice president and Jaquelina Balangione (Más para Santa Fe) as secretary. According to local media outlet La Capital, Granata's request will be rejected in limite , meaning without the need for a detailed review of the proposal. Thus, it will be dealt with expeditiously.

The program led by the model and panelist maintains that Oliveras was born in Jujuy and resides in Córdoba, meaning she does not meet a key requirement for running for a seat in the Constitutional Convention: a two-year residency in the province.
At the end of June, the Attorney General of the Supreme Court of Santa Fe, Jorge Barraguirre, suggested dismissing the SVyL's challenge because it was "untimely" because it was filed on June 9, when the legal deadline for challenging candidacies had expired on February 25. According to the Attorney General, such an objection should be filed during the pre-election period, when parties can control and discuss their candidates; and the Electoral Tribunal would no longer have jurisdiction to rule on it.
When Oliveras learned of Granata's accusation, he told the local press: "I was surprised by the statements, but considering who they're coming from... a person who only speaks badly of others . Of Milei and her sister, of Cristina, of Governor Pullaro... What did he do for Santa Fe in two terms? It seems they were hurt that I got three convention delegates and that the people support me."
"Locomotora" Oliveras was elected as a constituent delegate in the April elections in Santa Fe, and suffered a stroke in mid-July.
However, regarding the future of "Locomotora" Oliveras, the regulations of the Constitutional Convention that will discuss a reform of the provincial constitution stipulate that as long as there is no express resignation by the delegate, a request for disqualification against him or her, or a death, the person remains the owner of his or her seat.
If any of these three conditions were confirmed, her party, the Frente de la Esperanza (Hope Front), would retain the seat, and it would be filled by the first woman on the list of incumbents who failed to win the seat. In this case, Radical candidate Verónica Colombo. Meanwhile, Oliveras is fighting for her life at Cullen Hospital in Santa Fe.
