Last Sunday (7), in Rio Branco, it was evident who did not abandon the boat from Bolsonarism in Acre – even after the vessel began to make water. The act “Reja Brasil”, who called for amnesty to the January 8 prisoners and protested against the arrest of former President Jair Bolsonaro, revealed the faithful trench formed by three names: Senator Márcio Bittar, Mayor Tião Bocalom and Federal Deputy Colonel Ulysses.

While other acrean politicians, who elected surfing the popularity of Bolsonaro, have already put their foot out of this canoe, the three continue to row on the countercurrent and support the “free Bolsonaro” speech.
The curious fact is that Acre was the state that proportionally gave votes to the former president in the last two elections. That is, pockets are not a peripheral detail of local politics: it is a structuring part. But in practice, when the legal and political siege squeezed, most preferred to change their route so as not to sink together.
The trio Bittar, Bocalom and Ulysses makes the opposite movement: they maintain inflamed discourse and present themselves as guardians of political fidelity to Bolsonaro – an asset that, even in national fall, still echoes between the significant part of the Acre electorate.
The bet is risky. If pockets survive and reinvent themselves, they gain political capital as “the faithful to the end.” If you wreck once and for all, you have seen a reminder of a project that no longer finds wind to blow the candles.
But for now, on the Acre board, Sunday’s message was clear: in the midst of so much desertion, three names have decided to continue raising the 100%pocket flag.
You know exactly what you do
On the same September 7 when the Acre Bolsonarist trio showed full fidelity to Bolsonaro, Governor Gladson Cameli made it clear that he plays in another board. He chose not to participate in the act “React Brazil” and has been tuning the relationship with the Lula government – a pragmatic movement, as Acre depends almost entirely on federal resources.
Gladson does not hide that his project is 2026. He has already signaled that his presidential candidate will be Tarcísio de Freitas, governor of São Paulo, and works to take off from wings considered more radical from the right.
Ear tug at Rio Branco PL
PL councilors in Rio Branco took an ear tug this September 7th. None of them appeared at the beginning of the act “Reaja Brasil” in Gameleira, and it was necessary Mayor Tião Bocalom to connect one by one to charge. Shortly thereafter, the three appeared at the scene – even one who was sick made a point of being present.
PL Mira 2026 with good prospects in Acre
Regardless of the exaggeration or extremism that surrounds pockets, the PL should arrive strong in 2026 in Acre. The party is already organized to present a competitive plate for both the Legislative Assembly and the National Congress.
The expectation is to set up a robust list of candidates, with real chances to expand the state bench and ensure consistent representation in Brasilia. In addition, Senator Márcio Bittar’s reelection emerges as one of the safest bets of the acronym: he appears well placed in the initial polls and has the advantage of being one of the main spokesmen of Bolsonarism in the state.
The PL message of course: by 2026, the party wants to leave the polls as the protagonist of Acrean policy.
