MDB senator will launch pre-candidate in SP – 03/03/2023 – Mônica Bergamo

Senator Alexandre Luiz Giordano (MDB-SP) will launch himself as a pre-candidate for the Prefecture of São Paulo. The decision has already been communicated to the president of the party, federal deputy Baleia Rossi, and to the leader of the party in the Senate, Eduardo Braga.

According to interlocutors heard by the column, Giordano and MDB chiefs would not feel represented by the management of Ricardo Nunes at the head of São Paulo. The senator should contest the party’s primaries against Nunes next year.

Giordano is an alternate for Senator Major Olímpio, who died in 2021 from Covid-19.

He and other party members would not be satisfied with the administrative bias adopted by Nunes as mayor and claim that his government does not resemble the MDB. One of the annoyances is the fact that there are almost no Emedebist representatives in the Municipal Administration.

The 2024 election will be the big test for Nunes, who came to power after the death of Bruno Covas in May 2020.

A businessman, Nunes entered politics as a city councilor in São Paulo, in 2012, elected with 30.7 thousand votes, and was re-elected in 2016 with 54.6 thousand. He was unsuccessful, however, when he tried for a seat in the Chamber of Deputies in 2018. As a comparison, Covas received 3.1 million votes in the 2020 second round.
