November 23, 2015 - Conservative Mauricio Macri has been confirmed as the winner in Argentina's presidential elections after his ruling party opponent conceded. With 99% of votes counted, Macri led Daniel Scioli by 51.4% to 48.6%.
The son of one of Argentina's richest men, Mauricio Macri had a long career in business before entering politics. In 1995 he became president of Boca Juniors Football Club and used his success at the club as a springboard for his political career.
