Camilo Pérez’s campaign promises to step up ground activity through October 4

Jorge “Turi” Cappello, deputy campaign coordinator for List 1 of the Partido Colorado in Asunción, said the Camilo Pérez team will sustain its campaign activity until the last day before the October 4 elections, with an intensification of ground work.

In an interview with La Nación/Nación Media, Cappello said the command’s main challenge at this stage is to turn into votes the growth that, he said, Pérez’s candidacy has seen in the Paraguayan capital. In that context, he said they will not let up in the final stretch.

He also highlighted the internal unity of List 1 and said that support is evident in campaign walks and meetings. According to him, that backing is joined by support from non-Colorado sectors, which feeds expectations of a broad victory.

On the candidate’s proposals, he explained that the campaign focused on three areas. He mentioned cleanliness first, with broader coverage in waste collection and more frequent routes by garbage trucks. Second, he spoke about traffic, with an emphasis on rapid and constant pothole repairs. As a third point, he cited security, and said Pérez is proposing the creation of a Neighborhood Police force.

Cappello added that, according to his assessment, the candidate’s positioning is also reflected in polls conducted after the primaries, in which, he said, Pérez maintains an advantage over his rivals.

Heading into the campaign’s closing stretch, he insisted that Camilo Pérez will continue with tours and meetings to hear citizens’ complaints and take note of the population’s demands, according to La Nación Paraguay.
