Gisela Scaglia (born 22 October 1976) is an Argentine politician who has been Vice Governor of Santa Fe Province since 2023, serving under Maximiliano Pullaro.

She is a member of the Republican Proposal (PRO) party. From 2013 to 2021 she was a member of the Argentine Chamber of Deputies for Santa Fe.

Early life and education

[edit]

Scaglia was born on 22 October 1976 in Gálvez, Santa Fe. She studied political science at the National University of Rosario, graduating with a licenciatura degree in 2003. In 2020 she completed a Master of Public Administration from Torcuato di Tella University.[1]

Political career

[edit]

Scaglia ran for one of Santa Fe's nine seats in the National Chamber of Deputies in the 2013 legislative election. She was the second candidate in the Republican Proposal list, after Miguel del Sel. The list received 27.20% of the vote, enough for Scaglia to make it past the D'Hondt cut to be elected.[2] She was sworn in on 10 December 2013. She was re-elected in 2017 as part of the Cambiemos list, which came first in the voting with 37.80% of the vote.[3]

During her two terms she focused on legislation concerning youth policies, agriculture, environment, health, and education. Notable among her sponsored bills that became law are Law 27,621, establishing Comprehensive Environmental Education across Argentina, and Law 27,642 which seeks to promote healthy nutrition.[4][5]

On 8 May 2023, Maximiliano Pullaro announced his gubernatorial candidacy for the Santa Fe primary elections (PASO), selecting Scaglia as his running mate.[6] The Pullaro-Scaglia ticket, buoyed by the catch-all United to Change Santa Fe coalition, achieved a decisive victory in the general election, defeating the ruling Peronists by a 27% margin. Scaglia assumed office as Vice Governor of Santa Fe on 11 December 2023.[7]
