In an interview conducted by GLOBO, Extra, Valor and CBN, PSOL candidate for governor of Rio, William Siri, admitted difficulties in attracting left-wing voters amid President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva's (PT) support for Eduardo Paes's (PSD) candidacy. The PSOL candidate sought to contrast himself with the former mayor of the capital regarding political alliances and treatment of public servants, themes that are usually highlighted in left-wing campaigns.
Siri also tried to associate PL candidate Douglas Ruas, who was interviewed on Tuesday, with politicians investigated for involvement with organized crime. In his answers, the PSOL candidate sought to make overtures to police forces, but also criticized operations in favelas.
The interview was broadcast live on CBN radio, on the newspapers' websites and on YouTube. The series of interviews with candidates for governor continues.
