Cleitinho Azevedo leads Minas Gerais gubernatorial polls
Cleitinho Azevedo, representing Republicanos, is leading the race for the governorship of Minas Gerais according to recent Datafolha polling. In a first-round scenario, Cleitinho holds 40% of the intended votes, followed by Patrus Ananias (PT) with 15% and Alexandre Kalil (PDT) with 9%.
In potential second-round matchups, Cleitinho maintains a significant advantage, securing 60% against Patrus Ananias and 57% against Alexandre Kalil. Analysts note that Cleitinho’s strength lies in his ability to attract conservative and anti-establishment voters while remaining largely outside the traditional political polarization.
Despite his lead, the polling indicates a degree of voter indecision; approximately 36% of Minas Gerais voters state they may still change their choice for governor. Among those favoring Cleitinho, 26% remain undecided, while 48% of those favoring Kalil are still open to changing their vote.
