DAGUPAN City – Who’s the better man? Or who’s facing fewer charges?
It’s a battle all the way to the top for Pangasinan gubernatorial candidates Amado Espino Jr and Hernani Braganza in their race to claim Urduja House, amid plunder charges filed against them.
Just last week, both candidates were endorsed by political heavyweights, both of the same clan. On April 21, former President Fidel Ramos endorsed his nephew Alaminos mayor Braganza.
“If Nani Braganza will be elected governor of Pangasinan, I am sure that foreign and domestic investors will take a second look at our province and pour in the much-needed investments to jumpstart the local economy,” he said during his reunion with the Braganza family in Asingan.
Meanwhile, Ramos’s sister, former senator Senator Leticia Ramos-Shahani and her son re-electionist Board Member Ranjit, officially announced their support for Espino.
