No output when selecting a dropdown menu using python selenium

I want to select all the option values from a dropdown menu, but when selecting the latter no output appears. Any ideas why is this happening?

Html Code:

<select class="Combo" id="cmbSecciones" onchange="FiltrarCombos(this,this.item(this.selectedIndex).value);LlenarComboCargo(this,this.item(this.selectedIndex).value)

My code:

driver = webdriver.Chrome('/Users/Administrador/Documents/chromedriver')
main_url = 'https://www.justiciacordoba.gob.ar/Estatico/JEL/Escrutinios/ReportesEleccion20190512/default.html'
driver.get(main_url)

driver.switch_to.frame("topFrame")
dropdown= driver.find_element_by_xpath('//*[@id="cmbSecciones"]')
dropdown

output:

<selenium.webdriver.remote.webelement.WebElement (session="34e889c18eb0b5f5dbe6a18d6107389e", element="245e4c6a-e564-460e-9dd9-d678c7028c2d")>

This is because you are printing webelement not the option values.

To get all option values use this code.

dropdown= driver.find_element_by_xpath('//*[@id="cmbSecciones"]')
select_box = Select(dropdown)
for item  in select_box.options:
    print(item.get_attribute('value'))

Or you can do without select class to print all options

dropdown= driver.find_elements_by_xpath('//*[@id="cmbSecciones"]//option')
for item  in dropdown:
    print(item.get_attribute('value'))
