Buenos Aires Governor

Buenos Aires Governor Daniel Scioli led Argentina's presidential election race as counting got under way Sunday, but it was unclear whether he would avoid a runoff against his conservative rival.

At least 25 people were killed by flooding overnight in Argentina's Buenos Aires province, the governor said on Wednesday, bringing the overall death toll from days of torrential rains to at least 31 and leaving large stretches of the provincial capital under water.
