The author of the publication presented a tarot reading regarding the second round of the presidential elections of 2026 and said that it reflected the trend of October 9, and should not motivate hasty decisions. Regarding Flávio, she stated that the feeling of an early victory was consolidated among his supporters, who, according to her, were already planning a succession and articulating names and party agreements. The reading would also point to the involvement of a female figure with spiritual strength and the revelation of a hidden fact after a provocation, something that could be costly for "01". The author associated the outcome with dissatisfaction, distancing, and indignation. Concerning Lula, she said that the cards were practically the same as in her two previous readings and indicated a connection between his campaign and that of Bolsonaro’s son. According to the author, a situation could shake Lula’s campaign, while Flávio would be more at ease. She also predicted a division among Lula’s supporters and stated that he would seek support from his wife and close associates, who would begin to outline plans for the opposition's succession. The author added that the hidden fact could change votes and that the reading pointed to a very difficult and tight victory. About the final period of the campaign, she said that ten complementary cards indicated conflicts, including a clash between an assertive female figure and an impulsive and energetic man. Although she associated the cards with a feeling of defeat, she asserted that a situation could renew hopes and end with good news and relief. She said she would leave the reading about the developments until March or April for another occasion. #Eleições2026 #eleição2026 #Eleições2026 #eleição2026 #PolíticaBrasil (translated)

Pedro Menin assessed that an interview with Vorcaro to Globo could harm Lula and benefit Flávio. He called Vorcaro a criminal but also intelligent and speculated that he could blame members of the Workers' Party and say that Flávio's money was intended solely for a film. Menin also suggested that Vorcaro might align himself with the right to gain future advantages in trials. In Menin's view, supporting Lula would be a poor strategy among evangelicals, a group that, according to him, had a 70% rejection rate of the president—a percentage that could reach 90% after the leak of old tweets attributed to Ana Elisa, the PT's coordinator, about churches and believers. He stated that Vorcaro and his brother-in-law were pastors and speculated that they could turn to the church's power if their businesses did not succeed. Menin said that an attempt to prevent the interview could be seen as censorship and could lead to a 65 to 35 defeat for Lula in the second round. He also predicted that a victory for Flávio could initiate an impeachment process against Moraes and trigger a historic rise in the stock market in the following months. He noted that the text was merely a guess, that he had no non-public information, and that he could be very wrong. #Brasil #Política #Eleições2024 (translated)

Gustavo Petro stated that the delegates to the congress of the Pacto movement should be elected through open voting by the citizenry at all polling places in the country. He believed that a proposal to limit participation to the founding trends of the Pacto excluded the people and was, in his opinion, a slap in the face to democracy. Petro affirmed that the citizenry owned the movement and that it should reflect the 13 million people who, as he wrote, supported it, in all their diversity. He added that every voter of the Pacto should have the right to choose the delegates for the founding congress. He also suggested that the goal was to organize the largest political force in the country to restore democracy in Colombia and apply the 1991 Constitution, without fear of activating popular constituent power. He concluded with criticisms of what he called tyranny and bad government, and defended a country that offered opportunities and progress for all. https://t.co/tI7NstnYGw #DemocraciaColombia #Pacto #ParticipaciónCiudadana (translated)
