While many developed nations struggle with high unemployment, Argentina's jobless rate is around 7.3%...the lowest in 20 years.
Five million jobs have been created since the bad old days of devaluation in 2002.
The GDP has averaged 7.6% growth annually...since 2003.
Because of that...recent opinion polls suggest that President Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner/CFK could win more than 50% of the 23 October vote...and a second term.
