Career
Early political career
In 1961, he helped direct the Buenos Aires electoral campaign of Armando Turano for the Senate and Horacio Honorio Pueyrredón for the Chamber of Deputies; both were defeated by Alfredo Palacios and Carlos Adrogué. The following year, he was elected to the Buenos Aires City Council for the UCRI, but lost the seat shortly afterward when the military coup that overthrew President Arturo Frondizi dissolved legislative bodies. He later described his early anti-Peronist views during the conflict between Juan Perón and the Catholic Church as a deeply held belief shared across religious communities.[2][3][4][5][6]
