The blackout occurred as people were getting ready to head to the polls
for local elections in Argentina. It's not clear how the blackout will
impact the voting process.
Alejandra Martinez, an Edesur spokeswoman, described the blackout as
"unprecedented." She exclaimed, "This is the first time something like

Trains were out of service in Argentina; however, flight service continued
in the country due to backup generators, according to Argentine news site
Infobae.
Gustavo Lopetegui, Argentina's energy secretary, said that power was being
restored to certain areas to the South American country. He said the cause
of the massive outage was unknown at the time, while reports suggested it
was due to a grid failure.
Edesur tweeted that power was being restored, starting with 34,000 initial
customers and the process of normalization could take several hours
