With the polls casting Lula da Silva’s first-round victory as the biggest doubt of Sunday’s election campaign in Brazil, Jair Bolsonaro used his live Sunday the 25th, it has already arrived in Portugal, to ensure that this scenario is impossible.
“How can the other candidate, who according to the… [instituto de sondagens] Datafolha, has 45% [a última pesquisa, na realidade, atribuiu 47% a Lula] win in the first round if he doesn’t go out? Or, if there’s a movement, it’s with fences, everything fenced in, there’s nobody there,” Bolsonaro said.
“Do you want to win in the first round?” he wondered. “I think it’s difficult. Not difficult, impossible. And that’s it. And we know that in all clean and transparent elections, the result must be respected by whoever it is,” concluded the President of the Republic, candidate for another four-year mandate by the PL.
However, the main theme of Bolsonaro’s life was where it took place, hours after a judge of the Superior Electoral Court (TSE) banned the use of Palácio do Alvorada for that purpose. Benedito Gonçalves banned images “in the private spaces (internal facilities) of the Palácio da Alvorada (official residence), the Palácio do Planalto (Government Headquarters) and using the entire state apparatus, especially a sign language interpreter paid by the state treasury. “.
“Does the TSE know where I’m doing this live? “Hidden”, as if I’m a dark man,” responded the president and candidate. “What a concern TSE… but you have no concern for electoral transparency, zero”.
Yesterday, Monday 26, Bolsonaro was in an interview with TV Record in the early evening.
Lula, for her part, also only had an agenda at the end of the day, already in the evening in Portugal, at an event presented by, among others, the comedian Gregório Duvivier, where live musicians, such as Duda Beat, or via video, such as Caetano Veloso , supported the candidate at a show center in São Paulo.
However, Ciro Gomes had scheduled an “important address to the nation” for the morning. After speculating that the third-place candidate could drop out in the polls, with values around 8%, he rejected the idea and reinforced his resolve to go all out. “Nothing will stop my willingness to move forward,” he said, after equating Bolsonaro and Lula, shouting “Brazil resists, Ciro doesn’t give up”.
Simone Tebet took advantage of Monday to campaign in the south of the country in the towns of Maringá, in Paraná, and Pelotas and Santa Maria, in Rio Grande do Sul.
However, a poll conducted from the 23rd to the 25th by the FSB/BTG partnership and released in recent hours showed Lula with 48% (one point more than in the previous survey), Bolsonaro with 37%, Ciro with 8% (both without changes). ) and Simone Tebet with 5% (one point less).
