A month after the initial announcement, the caravan of women planned by supporters of Flavio Bolsonaro (PL-RJ) to travel across the country and bring the candidate closer to female voters has yet to get off the ground. The initiative has been internally treated as "stand-by," and allies of the presidential candidate have already expressed concern about the possible loss of focus in seeking support from women voters. The offensive had been presented as one of the main bets to expand dialogue with women, a segment where Bolsonarismo faces the greatest resistance. The idea was that Fernanda Bolsonaro, Daniella Marques, and Deputy Simone Marquetto would travel through different regions of the country to present proposals from the Brazil for Them program, part of the government plan developed with a focus on women.
