Rio de Janeiro political campaign launches

Overview

Political figures in Rio de Janeiro have begun mobilizing for the 2026 elections through various pre-campaign and campaign launch events.

In late July, Fabiano Horta announced his pre-candidacy for the Chamber of Deputies in Maricá, proposing to scale local initiatives like the Mumbuca social currency to national policy. Simultaneously, Tuninho da Padaria launched a pre-campaign for a state deputy seat in Nova Iguaçu, receiving endorsements from regional leaders.

By late August, campaign activities expanded to include gubernatorial candidate Eduardo Paes and federal deputy Tainá de Paula in São Gonçalo, where Paes proposed a 300 million investment in local community projects. Additionally, city councilwoman Talita Galhardo held a campaign announcement in Barra da Tijuca focused on female leadership and political participation.
