Sandro Alex outlines Paraná governance plans amid presidential election shifts

In the lead-up to the 2026 elections, political candidates in Brazil are outlining their platforms. Sandro Alex, the PSD candidate for the Governor of Paraná, has presented several key proposals. His agenda includes industrial investment following discussions with the Federation of Industries of the State of Paraná (Fiep), aiming to continue the sector's growth. He also pledged to pursue the best public education performance in South America, targeting international standards like those seen in Chile, and proposed implementing bilingual schools.

Regarding public safety, Alex highlighted the recent expansion of the Paraná Civil Police and committed to continued investment in personnel and technology.

On the presidential stage, a PoderData/Aya poll indicates a technical tie in a potential second round between President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva (PT) and Senator Flávio Bolsonaro (PL), with both candidates facing a 49% rejection rate. Additionally, Flávio Bolsonaro has proposed a railway project to connect Northeastern capitals to boost regional tourism and economic activity through concessions.
