Peace and love strategy

Senator Simona Tebet’s campaign strategy is to send a message of hope and peace to Brazil by trying to break the polarization between former President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva (Portugal) and current President Jair Bolsonaro (PL).

Simone’s allies bring together people from the MDB, PSDB and Cidadania, a group that calls itself the “democratic center”.

According to information from the Terra portal, the MDB commissioned a poll that revealed a feeling of disappointment and longing in the electorate about the situation in the country.

According to the survey, most respondents blame the crisis in Brazil not only on the Covid-19 pandemic, but also on the chief executive.

According to Terra, the MDB believes that when the election schedule begins on TV and radio in August, Senator Simone’s supporters could grow as an electorate that still has doubts is “looking for a candidate who represents novelty but with experience.”
