The Workers’ Party (PT) and the Brazilian Socialist Party (PSB) officially announced on Friday the presidential candidacy formula for Luis Inacio Lula da Silva and Geraldo Alcumen, during the recent formation conference in the southern hotel sector in Brasilia.
The preferred electoral formula for winning the upcoming elections was confirmed by all polls unanimously and with the presence of candidates and representatives of the two parties and other political parties that make up the coalition supporting former President Lula.
In this sense, the national head of the Public Security Service, Carlos Sequeira, avoided declaring that “in the name of simplicity, discretion, competence and ability, it is for Governor Geraldo Alcumen to compose the position of Vice President of the Republic with President Luis Inácio Lula da Silva.”
For his part, Lula acknowledged the support of the signatories to the Declaration on Democracy, which already has nearly 400,000 signatures and will be read on August 11, at the University of the South Pacific Law School, in Largo de São Francisco, downtown São Paul.
He added, “I never imagined, at the age of 76, and after more than 50 years of participation in the union movement and parties, that we would see a president of the republic lying to ambassadors and giving a false order.” The idea that democracy in Brazil is at risk due to electronic ballot boxes. The idea that these elections will be stolen,” he said, referring to President Jair Bolsonaro’s maneuvers to try to boycott the elections.
“This country will only succeed if it grows again to generate more jobs and better wages,” Lula said while denouncing the current executive for worsening levels of hunger and unemployment in that South American country.
While Alckmin expressed, “It’s time for Bolsonaro to leave. Your time is up. Their ideas and notions do not serve the country. His lies no longer exist. His cunning plan against democracy has failed. The ballot boxes will rid Brazil of all the evil they have caused.”
Meanwhile, Representative Gandira Feghali, Vice President of PCdoB, of the Lula-Alckmin union stated, “It was a construct that expresses the maturity of all these parties in this moment we are living in. It is not an easy moment, it is not an easy moment, but it requires brains. An open mind, and a broad mind, to build this unity, which is more than anything necessary for Brazil and for those who love our people and our country.”
During the date, it turned out that Andrea Nunes decided to withdraw her candidacy to express her support for the Lola Alkmene formula; As well as the various political sectors and the Congress, which in turn showed their dissatisfaction with the decisions and positions of the current head of state, Jair Bolsonaro.
