The political landscape in Sergipe has undergone significant restructuring as the gubernatorial reelection campaign for Governor Fábio Mitidieri progresses. Initially, Mitidieri planned to include Alessandro Vieira on his Senate ticket, but internal friction led to Vieira’s removal. In its place, Mitidieri reached an agreement with the PT to include Rogério Carvalho in the majoritarian slate. This alignment, involving cooperation between candidates André Moura and Rogério Carvalho, has reportedly caused concern among opposition groups.

Recent polling indicates a highly competitive race for the governorship. Governor Mitidieri leads the first round with 43% of intended votes, while former Itabaiana mayor Valmir de Francisquinho follows at 38%, a gap that falls within the margin of error. In a simulated second-round runoff, Mitidieri holds 46% against Francisquinho’s 43%. 

The Senate race remains contested, with Delegate André David leading at 18%, followed by Alessandro Vieira, Rogério Carvalho, and André Moura.
