PP presidents Ciro Nogueira and PL, Valdemar Costa Neto, aired on Thursday, 22, the possibility that the governor of São Paulo, Tarcisio de Freitas (Republicans), to be a candidate for presidency. Both, however, said they will insist to the end of former President Jair Bolsonaro (PL). The speech goes against what Tarcisio has said, which is categorical in stating that he will be a candidate for reelection.
Ciro and Valdemar spoke to the press up to the affiliation event of the São Paulo Secretary of Public Security, Guilherme Derrite, to the PP. The initial plan is that alongside the licensed federal deputy Eduardo Bolsonaro (PL).
However, the scenario may change if Tarcisio leaves to the Plateau. “Then we will legitimately defend the name of Derrite to the government,” said Ciro Nogueira, who believes that former first lady Michelle Bolsonaro, Tarcisio or the former president’s children would beat Lula next year.

Derrite said earlier this week that he does not intend to be a candidate for government because he is “100% aligned” with Tarcisio’s decision to run for reelection. Valdemar was asked if, besides the candidacy of Eduardo to the Senate, the PL would claim the vice in the plate of Tarcisio in São Paulo.
“We have to see what Tarcisio will solve so we can solve our lives,” replied the president of the PL.
When questioning whether the lawsuits against Bolsonaro in the Supreme Court (STF) would disrupt the PL articulation for the elections, he denied. “We have no candidate, our candidate is Bolsonaro,” concluded Valdemar.

The president of the PL said that from the polls, the election of Eduardo Bolsonaro to the Senate is guaranteed, and that the other place in dispute may be derived, but “will be a war.”
Valdemar also said that Eduardo will return to the country before the end of the four -month parliamentary license, ie before July 20. Bolsonaro’s son moved to the US to articulate with Donald Trump’s government the imposition of sanctions against the Supreme Court (STF), especially against Minister Alexandre de Moraes.
“We can’t wait for him to come back. He will continue his work, he is a first -time partner that has been fighting politics for good, a comrade of respect, serious and dedicated,” said the party leader.

Tarcisio is the favorite name of Centrão and the right parties to compete in the Plateau in 2026 in the absence of Bolsonaro. Despite denying the possibility, the governor has drawn attention to criticizing Lula’s economic policy in recent months at events inside and outside the country.
In another signage that was read as indicative that he prepares to compete in the Plateau, Tarcisio launched on Tuesday, 20, a social program that classified as “broader” than Bolsa Familia, PT’s main flag in coping with poverty.
Tarcisio is also at the event, but did not speak to the press on arrival. In addition to Valdemar and Ciro, the presidents of the PSD, Gilberto Kassab, União Brasil, Antonio Rueda, and Somos, Renata Abreu, also attended.

All of them were called to the stage of the event, even the case of the president of Alesp, André do Prado (PL). The state deputy is a potential adversary of Derrite, as he wants Tarcisio’s blessing to apply for the Bandeirantes Palace if the governor does not try to reelection.
The PP bets high in Derrite and brought deputies and senators from other states to the secretary’s affiliation.
