Vinicios Betiol stated that platforms like X and Meta manipulated the reach of candidates during the elections in Brazil and argued that the issue should be debated. According to him, left-wing candidates' profiles began receiving between 5% and 10% of their previous reach, while Nikolas Ferreira's profile was boosted. Betiol said that his profile on X used to reach 70 million people per month, but it fell to about 1 million during the election period. He also claimed that Nikolas had a greater reach than major international stars, despite electoral laws prohibiting recommendations to non-followers. Regarding his own campaign, Betiol stated that he encountered people on the streets who followed him, but many did not know he was a candidate because big techs had stopped distributing his posts. He attributed Nikolas's promotion by Meta to the fact that the deputy was the most voted and elected his own bench, whose members he considered mostly unprepared. Betiol accused the TSE of not recognizing the seriousness of the problem and said that democracy was at risk. He also claimed that his reach was starting to recover, that he had already filed a lawsuit with the Electoral Court, and that he intended to continue the dispute after the elections. According to him, he would continue addressing the issue even without receiving sufficient attention from a large part of the left. #Eleições2023 #Democracia #RedesSociais (translated)

Jones Manoel stated that a technical note prepared by the Institute of Functional Finances for Development (IFFD) estimated the fiscal and social impacts of the adjustment measures announced by Flávio Bolsonaro's economic team. The projections for the next 10 and 20 years indicated a cumulative reduction of R$ 11 trillion, by 2046 and at today's prices, in spending on health, education, retirement, and BPC, compared to the current rules. Regarding the SUS, Manoel stated that, based on parameters from international scientific literature on the relationship between public spending on health and mortality, the study estimated 742,000 additional deaths that could be avoided in twenty years. According to him, the number could reach 1.14 million in the scenarios with the greatest impact. Manoel also said that, even with the measures, the announced adjustment target of 2% of GDP would not be achieved by 2034. He shared the note to receive criticism and contributions to the debate. https://t.co/iToXaFiANs #Finanças #Saúde #Economia (translated)

Leandro Ruschel published guidelines for the last week of Flávio's campaign. He recommended that supporters prioritize voters who already intended to vote for the candidate, confirming whether they would go to the polls on the 25th and how they would get to the voting location. Ruschel also suggested talking to family, friends, and colleagues who were not supporters of the Workers' Party, first listening to the concerns of undecided voters and addressing any worries they had about the other side. In his assessment, trying to convince supporters of the Workers' Party would be a waste of time: he stated that they would remain loyal to the party despite the corruption scandals he attributed to it and the convictions and imprisonment of Lula in two different cases. If it were not possible to change a voter's mind, Ruschel said that distancing them from Lula would already be helpful, as a nullified vote would not be counted for the candidate. #Eleições2023 #Flávio #PolíticaBrasileira (translated)
