Santa Catarina 2026 election candidacies
Entities: Unified Socialist Workers' Party (PSTU) · Santa Catarina · Marcus Sodré · Sinte‑SC · Tatiane Pasdiora
Overview
In late July 2026, political parties in Brazil's southern state of Santa Catarina announced their candidates for upcoming elections. On July 21, the Democratic Labour Party (PDT) confirmed councilwoman Ciça Müller as its nominee for the State Assembly, highlighting her long‑time residence in Balneário Camboriú and her record on women's protection, cultural heritage, and sustainable development.
A week later, on July 27, the Unified Socialist Workers' Party (PSTU) nominated history professor Marcus Sodré for the governorship, naming teacher‑union director Tatiane Pasdiora as his running mate. The PSTU presentation stressed a socialist platform and indicated the party would run independently, joining a field of eight gubernatorial hopefuls.
Together, these announcements illustrate the broader process of candidate selection across parties ahead of the 2026 Santa Catarina state elections, covering both legislative and executive contests.
