Leandro Grass (PT) Opens Series of Interviews with Candidates for Governor of DF this Tuesday at 10:30 AM; Follow Along

oglobo15 September 2026 at 14:02

Former district deputy Leandro Grass, from the PT, opens this Tuesday the series of interviews promoted by O GLOBO, Valor, and CBN Radio with candidates for the government of the Federal District. The interview is scheduled to begin at 10:30 AM and will be broadcast live on the radio, on the newspapers' websites, and on YouTube. Each interview will last one and a half hours and will be held at CBN's studio, conducted by presenter Brunno Melo, columnist Fabio Graner, and Isador, whose full name was not provided in the article.

On Wednesday, it will be the turn of candidate José Roberto Arruda, from the PSD, to participate in the interview. On Thursday, who will be interviewed is Paula Belmonte, from the PSDB. The series of interviews aims to present to voters the proposals and positions of the candidates for the government of DF.

The current governor of the Federal District, Celina Leão, from the PP, who is seeking reelection, was scheduled to be interviewed on this Monday. However, she postponed her participation after her mother was hospitalized the night before the interview. A new date for the interview with Celina Leão has yet to be defined.

Why this matters

Residents of DF are following a series of detailed interviews with all candidates for local government, which may influence their voting decisions. Leandro Grass's interview opens the cycle of interviews that will include the main candidates for the position, including the current governor. Celina Leão's postponement means voters are still waiting for the interview with the acting governor.
