Paraná gubernatorial election

Overview

The gubernatorial race in Paraná, Brazil, transitioned from a competitive statistical tie to a decisive victory for Sergio Moro. Prior to the election, polling indicated a close contest between Moro, Sandro Alex, and Requião Filho, with Moro leading by a margin within the statistical error. During this period, the campaign faced legal challenges, including an Electoral Court injunction against Sandro Alex for the alleged use of public resources in campaign propaganda. The court ordered the removal of a video featuring Governor Ratinho Junior and Sandro Alex, ruling it exceeded institutional coverage.

Ultimately, Sergio Moro won the election in the first round, securing approximately 50.1% of the valid votes. Running with vice-governor candidate Edson Vasconcelos, Moro defeated Sandro Alex, who received 25.35%, and Requião Filho, who received 23.48%. Following the announcement by the Superior Electoral Court (TSE), Moro stated his victory was achieved “against all the machinery and all the lies.”

In post-election commentary, Moro characterized the results as a rejection of President Lula’s administration, citing economic factors such as high inflation, debt, and interest rates. He also directed criticism toward the judiciary, claiming Supreme Federal Court (STF) ministers have “lost control” and suggesting that a more right-wing Senate in 2027 might consider the impeachment of STF members to address perceived judicial excesses.

Following the results, Moro hosted a political gathering in Curitiba for nearly 3,000 people, including approximately 230 mayors and various legislators, to support Flávio Bolsonaro’s presidential candidacy. Agricultural organizations such as Sistema FAEP expressed readiness to collaborate with the incoming administration, specifically referencing the “Master Plan for Paranaense Agribusiness 2027/30.”
