He was a member of the National Party, in the "Herrerismo" sector, led by Luis Alberto Lacalle. He was elected as a Deputy in the 1984 elections, and he occupied his seat from 1985 until 1990.

In the 1989 elections, Lacalle was elected President of the Republic, and Machiñena was reelected as a Deputy for his party. He remained in this post from 1990 to 1995.

Machiñena quit the "Herrerismo" sector and joined another group within the National Party, led by Alberto Volonté. In the 1994 elections Machiñena was re-elected for a third time as a Deputy. He occupied the seat between 1995 and 2000.

Death

In 2007, Machiñena died of a heart attack.[2] His remains are buried at Cementerio del Buceo, Montevideo.[3][4]

gollark: Now to figure out how much data I can gather about search results to ~~sell to Google~~ optimize my services!
gollark: I tick those boxes there to allow it to index those sites.
gollark: I've made a bit of a frontend for my search engine thing. Though it can't actually do search yet, only crawl/index/whatever pages.
gollark: Basically, if I want to run a search it just goes `SELECT * FROM page_tokens WHERE token = 'one token in search query'` or something like that, and it now has a list of pages with the right token, and SQLite can execute this query relatively fast.
gollark: I mean, as far as I can tell there isn't really a faster *and* more storage-efficient way to do search than the inverted-index page_tokens thing.
