Poll finds Moro ahead in Paraná race as Ratinho Jr.'s pick trails

A Quaest survey on the Paraná governorship shows Sérgio Moro leading the race, while 82% of respondents do not know the name chosen by the governor. The result highlights notable voter unfamiliarity with the governor’s designated candidate.

A separate column discussion notes that Ratinho Junior’s own candidate registers only 5% in one scenario, and 6% in a scenario where the former Curitiba mayor (referred to as 'R') is not in the race. This framing suggests a weak position for Ratinho Junior's selection regardless of candidate lineup.

Taken together, the items point to a low recognition for the governor’s pick and a challenging starting point for Ratinho Junior’s gubernatorial campaign, with low single-digit support in the poll figures referenced."
