Salta Identity Party

Argentine political party

The Salta Identity Party (Spanish: Partido Identidad Salteña; PAIS) is a provincial political party in the Salta Province of Argentina. It was founded by Gustavo Sáenz ahead of the 2015 general election; Sáenz has been governor of Salta since 2019.[11]

The party was a member of the United for a New Alternative alliance until 2017, when it aligned itself with Cambiemos.[11] It supported Roberto Lavagna and former Salta governor Juan Manuel Urtubey's 2019 unsuccessful presidential run; since then it has distanced itself from any national alliances.[12][13] The party counts with representation – but no majorities – in both houses of the Salta provincial legislature. It counts with no representation at the federal level.

Its logo, adopted ahead of the 2019 gubernatorial elections, is a stylized poncho salteño. The party's use of the traditional poncho led to a legal dispute with an ally party, Salta Unites Us (SNU), that also used a stylized poncho as part of its image.[10] The dispute was settled by the province's Electoral Tribunal, which sentenced in favor of PAIS and ruled both parties could freely use the poncho as their logo.[14]
