Cadu Xavier Gains Historic Support from Rival Leaders in Parelhas Ahead of Rio Grande do Norte Governor Race

In the municipality of Parelhas, long‑standing political opponents joined forces to back Cadu Xavier, the PT candidate for governor of Rio Grande do Norte. State deputy and former mayor Francisco, a leading figure of the local PT, and the incumbent mayor Tiago Almeida of the PSDB announced their joint support, emphasizing the need for unity in the state election and the continuation of development projects started by Governor Fátima Bezerra.

Both leaders quoted the same message: the election is now a state contest, not a municipal one, and the priority is to choose the best candidate for the state. Their alliance signals Xavier’s ability to unite disparate factions in the Seridó region and broaden his political base ahead of the upcoming gubernatorial race.
