They seek to imitate Urtubey with a candidate who has a background similar to Gioja
By Jorge Hirschbrand PJ wants to build the candidacy of "Paco" Pérez in the image and likeness of the Salta Governor. Promineros background, so closer to the Juan.

BRGPG is a company of lawyers linked strongly with mining enterprises in our province. The name of the company makes sense. The "B" is by Alejandro Barraza; the "R" is by Raúl Rodríguez; the "G" is by Fabián Gregory, and the final "G" for George Gabutti... Ah, of course, is true, missing "P" of the medium. It is by Francisco "Paco" Pérez, the current Minister of infrastructure of the province and brand new candidate for Governor by the Peronist party.
Pérez dissociated itself from the Studio in December 2007, when he was appointed by Celso Jaque as a member of his Cabinet. A few months earlier, in August of that year, was one of the mentors of the agreement by which BRGPG won the legal representation of mining Saint George, owner of the mining project of copper and gold in Uspallata that has generated more than a polemic in the province.
While formally "Paco" Pérez moved away from this project, that past pursued him during his time as an official and the same will occur during the campaign with a view to the elections of October 23.
Its link with Saint George came to light once the issue became a focus of discussion. And even though he tried to be immune to this situation, Gates inward militated favour granting exploitation permits mining chaired by Fabian Gregory. That position was reflected in the crosses that held during cabinet meetings with the Secretary of environment Guillermo Carmona.
PJ they know that this will be a weak flank in the campaign. For this reason they are already thinking in what will be the answer when it comes to the opposition onslaught intending to locate in the anti-mining corner.
Basically, Pérez is a candidate to be built. So they understand the PJ, where already settled the Peronist chip which orders all encolumnarse behind the new political leader.
That is the image that will seek to show. Of a new character. A committed youth, explained Juan Carlos Mazzón. And even suggested to equate it with the re-elected Salta Governor Juan Manuel Urtubey. Although, for now, it's closer to Gioja.
