Michelle Bolsonaro leads Senate race in Distrito Federal
A recent Datafolha poll shows Michelle Bolsonaro leading the race for the two Senate seats in the Distrito Federal with 22% of the intended votes. She is in a technical tie with Leila do Vôlei (PDT), who holds 19%, given the three-percentage-point margin of error.
Following the leaders, Bia Kicis (PL) and Erika Kokay (PT) are tied with 15% each. Other candidates, including Sebastião Coelho (Novo) and Ronaldo Fonseca (PSD), registered 2% each, while several others received 1% or less. The poll also noted that 10% of respondents expressed intention for blank or null votes, and 10% remained undecided.
In a separate recent event, a political rally in Vila Planalto saw Michelle Bolsonaro call for respect among opposing political groups after being heckled by a supporter of President Lula. The event also featured Celina Leão and addressed recent political tensions.
