Chaco gubernatorial candidate Danilo Baroni and his running mate, Emilio Carrara, were elected governor and vice governor of Chaco Province on 10 December 1987.[1] Baroni and Carrara defeated the rival ticket of Luis León and Ángel Rozas by approximately 14,000 in the 1987 gubernatorial election.[1]
Carrara left office in December 1991 after one term as vice governor.[2] He was then elected to the Chamber of Deputies of Chaco Province, including a tenure as the president of the provincial chamber of deputies.[1][2] He also served as a member of the national Argentine Chamber of Deputies.[1][2]
Carrara spent his later life focused on ranching and livestock farming.[2]
In 2015, the Chaco provincial government dedicated the new Kindergarten No. 214 of Campo Largo as the "Vice Governor Emilio Eduardo Carrara" in his honor.[1]
Emilio Carrara died in a Buenos Aires hospital on 20 August 2021, at the age of 75.[1] He had been hospitalized in serious condition prior to his death as his health declined.[1] Chaco provincial governor Jorge Capitanich declared three days of mourning from August 20th until August 22nd and ordered flags to be flown at half staff during that time.[1][3] He was buried in Campo Largo.[2]
He was survived by his wife, Lilián Vargas, a lawyer, and four children.[2] His son, Rafael Rubén Carrara, serves as the mayor of Corzuela, as of 2021.[2]
