The state deputy () was reelected this Monday (3) president of the under appeals to assume publicly next year.
The victory, with the unpublished unanimity of the 70 deputies, was obtained even with the vote of allies of the mayor of Rio de Janeiro (PSD),.
The plate led by Bacellar was the only one inscribed after Paes could not articulate a front against the deputy. During the Tiradentes Palace session, in downtown Rio de Janeiro, the reelected president was urged by PL deputies to confirm the pre-candidacy for the governor’s succession (PL).
“After this moment of the election, it is time for you to position yourself as a candidate for the Rio de Janeiro government. We have no time to wait,” said Deputy Alan Lopes (PL).
“The PL, under the leadership of President Altineu Côrtes, will work hard so that we can build the consensus of the name of the Lord for governor of the state,” said Deputy Douglas Ruas (PL), whose name is also ventilated as postulant to dispute.
The lines also aimed at Paes.
“The state needs the Lord. We cannot leave that clown who rules the city of Rio de Janeiro give a security connoisseur and play joke about the security of the state, trying to denigrate the image of our governor,” said Deputy Filipe Poubel (PL).
“Eduardo Paes has already destroyed the municipality. We cannot let him do the same with the state,” said Deputy Márcio Gualberto (PL).
In a speech after the victory, Bacellar again set aside, at least publicly, the 2026 dispute. But it signaled, however, to be available to the allies.
“[Vamos] Leave the election for the opportune moment that it will arrive. Being remembered is good for the ego, but I think we have to work. I’m the most group guy you’ve ever seen. Never my vanity and the chair I’m sitting will put me in front of someone. If it is for the group, the parties that supported me here, for any name, I am in and go to the end, “he said.
Neither Paes nor Bacellar publicly assumed their intention to dispute Guanabara Palace. The mayor, who ends in 2028. The deputy says he has a goal in the State Court of Auditors.
Both, however, signal interest in the dispute. Paes has approached more intensely topics linked to the state government. Bacellar de () to present itself as an option of the former president in the dispute.
Paes and Bacellar also, right after the municipal election. The mayor compared him a leader of a mobster group. The deputy answered the “disguised”, “cynical” and “virgin girl in the cabaret”.
In the speech after the election, Bacellar did not mention Paes. But an excerpt from speech was read by deputies as an indirect mayor, who has stood out for videos on social networks.
“No one voted for politician to be a social network sectional. Who wants to do good does, put their hands on the dough. It doesn’t have to be all the ‘Tiktok’ political time. Don’t expect from Bacellar that if a disaster happens, I put a boot , step in the mud and take a picture crying with others. It is cheap opportunism, “he said.
Unsuccessfully to make an opposing plate in the Assembly viable, Paes decided to release allies to vote for Bacellar to keep a bridge with the current opponent. The main mark of this movement was the vote of Deputy Guilherme Schleder (PSD), dismissed from the command of the Municipal Secretariat of Sports to vote in favor of the deputy.
“Despite being in the function of sports secretary of the municipality, I follow this house very closely. Today I made a point of licensing to vote yes and wish you good luck in the next two years,” he said.
Deputy Martha Rocha (PDT), who took over the Municipal Secretariat of Social Assistance of Paes, also voted in favor of Bacellar.
He even had the vote of PSOL deputies, who traditionally abstained or adhere to opposition names. The five deputies of the acronym stated that the head of the Assembly allowed the development of the performance of his mandates, despite the opposition to Castro.
“The PSOL presided over three committees and they never had their work embarrassed. The balance we do is that the assembly was not an extension of the government,” said Deputy Flávio Serafini (PSOL).
Bacellar is an ally of Castro and is part of the hard core near the governor. However, it always has a tense relationship with the chief executive, e.
He is not the only option of Castro and Bolsonarists for the dispute. State Secretary of Transport, Washington Reis (MDB), is also seen as a potential candidate, although he was considered ineligible by the Electoral Court in the 2022 election.
