Election cycles

For the first time since 1973, all seats in the Argentine Senate were renewed in the 2001 legislative election, following the implementation of a new system as per the 1994 constitutional amendment. Under the new system, a third of all seats were renewed for two year-terms (2001–2003), another third for four-year terms (2001–2005), and another third for full six-year terms (2001–2007). Which province was allocated two-year, four-year, or six-year terms was decided by draw. Accordingly, all of the senators listed here were elected in 2001.
