Brazil political landscape sees shifting alliances and endorsements

Political movements and endorsements are intensifying across various Brazilian states as candidates prepare for upcoming elections. In the Novo party, candidates such as Marina Helena and Sebastião Coelho have declared support for Flávio Bolsonaro in the first round, a move reportedly authorized by Romeu Zema despite his own presidential candidacy.

In Mato Grosso, Mauro Mendes is campaigning for a Senate seat, emphasizing his record of infrastructure and public service investments during his tenure in state government. Meanwhile, in Paraíba, political alignments are shifting; the mayor of São João do Tigre has withdrawn support from Veneziano Vital do Rêgo to endorse the ticket of João Azevêdo and Lucas Ribeiro. The PT national president, Edinho Silva, confirmed that President Lula maintains support for Azevêdo and Veneziano in the state.

Other regional developments include Sérgio Petecão receiving endorsements in Acre, and Munir Neto consolidating support in Rio Claro. In Rio Branco, Marcus Alexandre is relying on political capital rather than large financial structures. Additionally, a digital platform has been launched to assist voters in identifying candidates supported by President Lula for the 2026 Senate races.
