Argentine political party
The Conservative People's Party (Spanish : Partido Conservador Popular ; PCP ) is a minor[ 9] social conservative [ 6] political party in Argentina founded in 1958 by Vicente Solano Lima , who was vice president of Argentina in 1973.[ 2] It was founded as a split from the Democratic Party (PD) following the 1955 coup that ousted Juan Domingo Perón from the presidency.[ 10]
A historical ally of Peronism and the Justicialist Party ,[ 11] in recent years the PCP has backed anti-Peronist parties and alliances, and was one of the founding parties of the Cambiemos coalition in 2015.[ 12] Ahead of the 2019 general election , the PCP left Cambiemos and instead joined the newly formed NOS Front , backing the candidacy of Falklands War veteran Juan José Gómez Centurión .[ 6] Gómez Centurión placed fifth in the presidential race with 2.6% of the vote.[ 13]
It presently counts with no representation at the federal level.
