The leftist ticket in Santa Catarina is practically closed and the government is betting on an alliance between parties in this field —, and — to guarantee more votes in the state.
The coalition will be headed by businessman Gelson Merísio, who joined the PSB.
In the Senate, the idea is to give space to PSOL, which could launch Afrânio Boppré as a pre-candidate for a seat in the House. The name that is already more than certain is that of the president of Sebrae and former deputy Décio Lima (PT).
In recent years, the PT member has failed to exceed 35% voting intentions.
Behind the scenes, government supporters recognize the difficulty of winning in the state, but believe that the alliance can give Lula more than 40% of the votes this year.
