In the competition for conservative voters, candidates for state governorships who position themselves as representatives of non-Bolsonaro right-wing forces have started championing judicial reform as a campaign banner. The strategy emerged from criticisms leveled against the Supreme Court (STF) after investigations into the Banco Master case revealed new evidence of the relationship between Justice Alexandre de Moraes and Daniel Vorcaro, the owner of Banco Master.
The issue, which has been driving the presidential election since last week, has started being addressed by candidates in the states. Among them is Sandro Alex, former Infrastructure Secretary of Paraná and candidate for state governor as successor to Governor Ratinho Junior (PSD).
In a video published this Monday commemorating September 7th, Sandro Alex addressed the issue. The article was cut off, but it indicates that he criticized the STF in this context.
The Questa poll cited in the article shows that President Lula and Senator Flavio Bolsonaro are tied in a runoff scenario, and that voters from candidates like Cury, Renan Santos, Caiado, and Zema migrate more toward Flavio Bolsonaro in an eventual second round, evidencing the strategic importance of winning over this conservative electorate.
