According to the publication, the initiative aimed to bring the demands of the original territories closer to the digital environment, give visibility to historical agendas, and reinforce support for President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva in the second round. The mobilization also intended to highlight the political participation of Indigenous peoples in national public decisions and defend the maintenance and advancement of territorial and social rights achieved in recent years. #LutasIndígenas #DireitosHumanos #ParticipaçãoPolítica (translated)

Pablo Echenique thanked the members of Podemos in the regions who, as he wrote, had negotiated in good faith, while the Frente Amplio negotiated behind their backs with the PSOE for the Senate. He also accused progressive media of spreading lies and contributing to demoralizing them. He also thanked those who defended both his political project and, in his words, "the facts and reality" on social media. Echenique stated that Podemos could push for an independent project from the PSOE and without compromises, after Sumar had disintegrated in just three years. He argued that this autonomy would allow for denouncing the rearmament, the handing over of the CGPJ to the PP, the corruption of the PSOE, and, he said, the protection of the interests of rentiers. He also highlighted the joint candidacy of Irene Montero and Gabriel Rufián, whom he described as the left-wing leaders with the most recognition and appeal at that time. The Podemos leader anticipated that media pressure would increase and accused the media of publishing false polls that would attribute votes from other parties to the Frente Amplio. He stated that this coverage was due to the fear of a left that did not obey orders or accept agreements for a few senators. He urged his supporters to move forward and pointed out that on Sunday, November 29, voters could decide at the polls. #Podemos #Izquierda #Elecciones2023 (translated)

Pablo Echenique stated that the Broad Front had ordered to break agreements with Podemos that were practically closed in numerous territories and, at the same time, had signed a pact for the Senate with the PSOE, which he linked to rearmament, corruption, and rent-seeking. #FrenteAmplio #Podemos #PSOE (translated)

Chema Garrido made three reflections: he said that it was easy to criticize Gabriel Rufián, although he had tried and had taken risks; he pointed out that Podemos was being attacked despite, in his opinion, being right about the primaries; and he described it as shameful that candidates from other territories were designated from Madrid. #Política #Opinión #Debate (translated)

Antonio Maestre wrote that the Frente Amplio had sent Podemos a proposal that included a priority position on the list in the Community of Madrid and Catalonia, as well as its incorporation with full rights in all the constituencies where the Frente Amplio was presented. In territories such as the Valencian Community, Aragón, the Balearic Islands, and the Canary Islands, it proposed joint candidacies with Compromís, the Chunta Aragonesista, ARA Mes, or Nueva Canarias, among other parties. According to Maestre, the proposal also envisaged that Podemos would appoint one of the spokespersons of the parliamentary group, a program focused, among other issues, on the right to housing, public services, salaries, equality, LGTBI+ rights, and energy transition, and an equitable distribution of resources among the organizations of the Frente Amplio. #FrenteAmplio #Podemos #Política (translated)

Kriska Carvalho wrote that October 18 would be the National Mobilization Day for the Lula President campaign and that social movements in São Paulo planned to hold decentralized actions over the weekend. According to her, the decision aimed to avoid the crossing of large flows of people at public transport stations during a pro-Bolsonaro event on Avenida Paulista and to intensify the organization of door-to-door actions in the peripheries as a strategy to win votes. Carvalho stated that artists would participate in the mobilizations to enhance dialogue in the neighborhoods. In the North Zone, a musical event called O RAP Convoca, featuring Emicida, Rashid, AJulia Costa, and other attractions, was scheduled for 3 PM in front of CCJ Cachoeirinha. In the South Zone, the gathering would be at 3 PM in front of the Plaza of the Cultural Center of Grajaú, with Pagode da 27 and other attractions. In the East Zone, the concentration was set for 3 PM at Praça Brasil, in Itaquera. In the West Zone, the March of Samba would leave at 5 PM from Largo do Banana heading towards Rua do Samba, in Barra Funda. #LulaPresidente #Mobilização #MovimentosSociais (translated)

Pablo Iglesias stated that Compromís, Podemos, Izquierda Unida, and ERC, among other parties, had agreed to run together in the elections in the Valencian Community. He noted that the coalition would not be called Frente Amplio and contrasted the agreement with the situation in Catalonia, where ERC competed with that formation while Podemos supported it and, as he wrote, would integrate into its lists. Iglesias said that the coalitions in the Canary Islands and the Valencian Community were also not called Frente Amplio or Sumar, as was the case, according to him, in the Balearic Islands and Aragón. He asserted that similar agreements could be reached in other territories and that plurinationality and the left complicated these alliances. He also criticized the position of those who, as he wrote, conditioned agreements in other territories on Podemos integrating into a coalition in Madrid. He stated that an agreement in all territories except Madrid would not imply an electoral penalty and that there the left-wing electorate could choose between the candidacies of Delgado and Colau or those of Montero and Rufián. Iglesias argued that Podemos and MM-FA could have run together in Madrid through primaries, but claimed that someone did not want that option. He added that agreements without primaries could be reasonable in places where the electoral system penalized division, although they were not essential in Madrid. Finally, he urged those who, in his opinion, impeded agreements like those in the Canary Islands and the Valencian Community to rectify and negotiate with Podemos in Andalusia, Galicia, Asturias, Murcia, the Basque Country, Castile, and La Rioja. https://t.co/liVgAhAk6Q #PaísValencià #Coalición #Izquierda (translated)

“In this case, we are valuing the cultural action of the municipalities that can and should inspire other territories, as yet another stimulus to the creation, programming, and enjoyment of the populations.” According to the Minister of Culture, Youth, and Sport, Margarida Balseiro Lopes, quoted in the statement, this initiative fits into the promotion of culture “as a factor of territorial cohesion”: “In this case, we are valuing the cultural action of the municipalities that can and should inspire other territories, as yet another stimulus to the creation, programming, and enjoyment of the populations.” #Cultura #PoderLocal #PlanoNacionalDasArtes (translated)
