“The candidate in Sao Paulo is Tarcisio, and my candidate will be his. If he decides to run for the presidency and assess that my name is the most appropriate, I accept the mission.”
The PSD leader was also questioned by the TV network about the possibility of the mayor of São Paulo (MDB), to run for government also in a scenario in which the current governor does not compete for reelection. Kassab said the emedebista would be “an excellent candidate”.
