Montevideo Mayor Mario Bergara faces a crisis of confidence, with a recent poll revealing only 23% approval of his performance. This figure is significantly lower than the 46% disapproval rating, and even worse than that of the national president. Critics point to a lack of tangible progress on promises made since Bergara took office. The city is reportedly struggling with issues of cleanliness, poor lighting, deteriorating roads, and neglected public spaces. The poll suggests widespread dissatisfaction with the current state of Montevideo under Bergara’s leadership. These numbers present a significant challenge for the mayor as he moves forward with his term.
