Flavio Bolsonaro visits Trindade Romaria to court Catholic voters
Senator Flavio Bolsonaro attended the Romaria do Divino Pai Eterno in Trindade, Goiás, on 26 June 2026, joining a walk with Senator Wilder Morais and vice‑governor candidate Ana Paula Rezende. He presented the appearance as a spiritual act and emphasized that the episode involving former first lady Michelle Bolsonaro is "a page turned," urging focus on the party’s political project ahead of the 2026 elections.
Polls show President Luiz Inácio Lula leading among Catholic voters (53% to Flavio’s 40%) while Flavio enjoys a lead among evangelicals (58% to Lula’s 32%). The senator’s participation in the country’s largest Catholic pilgrimage aims to improve his standing with a constituency that has historically favoured theleft, marking a distinct shift in the right‑wing campaign’s outreach strategy.
