Lula's risk among women

oglobo15 September 2026 at 08:31

President Lula is losing ground among women, who used to be his greatest electoral asset. In the latest Quaest poll, the president shows a reduction in consistency across various segments where he has always performed well.

The most concerning data revealed by the poll is about the fears of the women surveyed. There is a tie among women when asked which scenario they fear most: Lula's re-election or Bolsonaro's return to power.

In just one month, the scenario changed significantly. The percentage of women who stated they were afraid of Bolsonaro's return dropped from 49% to 42%, while fear of Lula's re-election rose from 36% to 42%, resulting in this tie in the fear index.

Why this matters

The poll reveals a significant shift in Lula's electoral base, with women now tied in their fears between the two candidates. This 7 percentage point drop in fear of Bolsonaro in just one month, accompanied by a similar increase in rejection of Lula, may represent a real threat to the president's stay in power, directly affecting the country's political landscape.
