Carmen Lucila Crexell

In preparation for the 2019 general election, Crexell joined Juntos por el Cambio and agreed to be the second candidate in the JxC list, behind Horacio "Pechi" Quiroga. However, Quiroga died on 12 October 2019, just a week before election day. Although with 32.3% of the vote, Juntos por el Cambio did not receive enough votes to secure the two Senate seats, as Quiroga was dead, Crexell renewed her seat in his stead. Despite being elected for Juntos por el Cambio, Crexell remained nominally a member of the MPN, and currently leads the single-member Neuquén People's Movement bloc in the Senate.

Ahead of the 2013 legislative election, she was invited by Guillermo Pereyra (secretary general of the Private Oil and Gas Union of Río Negro, Neuquén and La Pampa) to be the second candidate in his MPN list to the Argentine Senate. The Pereyra-Crexell ticket won in the primaries against the Pechen-Bertoya ticket, supported by Crexell's cousin, then-Neuquén governor Jorge Sapag. The MPN went on to win the most votes in the general election, allowing Crexell to be elected into the Senate.

In 2008, Crexell was elected to the Constitutional Convention of San Martín de los Andes, tasked with drafting a new constitutional document for the municipality. Later, in 2011, she ran for the mayorality for the Neuquén People's Movement (MPN). Although she won in the MPN primaries, she was defeated by the Justicialist Party candidate.

Luz Sapag was also a Senator for Neuquén from 2001 to 2007, as was Crexell's grandfather, Elías Sapag. Guillermo Crexell was murdered in 1995 by two of his employees, while Luz died in 2010 in a car accident.

Crexell studied Public Relations at the Argentine University of Enterprise, graduating in 2001. She also completed a law degree from the same university in 2019.
