Arthur Machado stated that if Lula lost the elections on the 25th, sectors of the right that defined themselves by anti-PT sentiment could be left without a central opponent, since, according to him, they had not built an alternative project for the country. Machado criticized a portion of the liberal right, which, in his view, repeated slogans without presenting proposals to attract investments, modernize laws, or promote coexistence with divergent views. He also mentioned that the PT could fragment and compete for space among leaders after Lula. As an example, he cited European sectors that, according to him, reorganized their political identity around fighting other groups, including the radical right. Machado stated that without a consistent national project, former opponents of the PT could start targeting Eduardo Bolsonaro and other movements in search of new adversaries. The author also said that the criticisms of the "5th element" came from groups without a project or knowledge about Brazil and claimed that political groups that treated law as a tool for control, rather than as a guarantee of rights and freedoms, were technocratic and promoted a Chinese governance model. He concluded that the problem for these sectors would be discovering that they never had a project to replace Lula as an opponent. #PolíticaBrasil #Antipetismo #Lula (translated)

Leo Kasura stated that a new survey from the Gerp Institute, which was described as the second most reliable institute during the first round, showed Flávio with 52.6% and Lula with 47.4%, a lead of over five percentage points. He assessed that Lula's electoral measures had not converted votes and said that the PT campaign was still far from the lead as it approached the weekend. Kasura advocated that the PL intensify its campaign in the following week to increase Flávio's lead. He also stated that Lula neither had the age nor the mental capacity to continue as President and criticized the president for, according to him, forgetting that the Bolsa Família went almost four years without an increase during his own government. In the end, he expressed support for the right in Brazil. #Eleições2023 #Brasil #Política (translated)

Roberto Reis pointed out five changes that, in his opinion, were necessary in Flávio's campaign. He said that Ronaldo Caiado, Cleitinho, Augusto Cury, Romeu Zema, ACM Neto, and other leaders were being underutilized and needed to be given tasks and agendas. Reis advocated for mobilizing supporters to respond to rumors about Bolsa Família, BPC, and pensions. According to him, employment, debts, and cost of living were real concerns that were changing votes among the less privileged classes. He also called for concrete proposals: IPVA with Cleitinho, security with Caiado, and income and prosperity with Zema and Pablo Marçal. Regarding the debates, he recommended preparation, quick responses, and different strategies for each of the two meetings. For the street campaign, he suggested increasing presence and mobilizing supporters, stating that the left had already mobilized. He also proposed organizing the monitoring of the ballots and holding a "bloquinho 22" in all cities the following week. Reis summarized his proposal as turning support into work and effort. #CampanhaFlávio #Eleições2024 #PolíticaBrasileira (translated)
