The ND Group will hold this Wednesday (17th) state government candidate debate on the portal BUT+, which is the most visited in Santa Catarina, maintaining the preference of Santa Catarina residents in the first half of 2022. From 7:30 p.m., coverage of the pre-debate begins on ndmais.com.br. The live broadcast of the debate will start at 20:00.

The mediator will be the journalist Marcia Dutra, and the news will be presented in the format. A model similar to the North American one will be adopted, in which debaters are sent to confront ideas directly. The debate organization also intends to implement a dynamic style that is different from the traditional style already presented in Santa Catarina. Another innovation is structuring, allowing candidates to focus on proposals, and there will even be the possibility of an intermediary intervening if the candidate leaves the proposed topic.

In accordance with the electoral legislation, candidates from parties, federations or coalitions of at least five parliamentarians in the National Congress were invited. They are: Desiu Lima (Portugal), Esperidian Amin (PP), Jean Loureiro (Unian), Jorge Boeira (PDT), Jorginho Mello (Poland), Moises (Republicans), Odair Tramontin (Novo) and Ralph Zimmer (Pro).

In addition to the news already announced, the Voto+ project will contain even more content with interviews and debates, polls, TV spots and ND+ portal interactivity, as well as new products that will be launched in the coming weeks.

ND Group prepares multi-platform coverage

To keep Santa Catarina residents well informed about the election scenario, new resources and content are being launched in the Voto+ Grupo ND project.

This week, Minuto Voto+ launches on NDTV programs with up to 60 seconds of voter service. The content is complemented by podcasts by journalist Karina Manarin, which are published on the portal every Thursday. Other content that is already part of the coverage are special reports from the newspaper ND with animations and infographics to contextualize and clarify complex issues related to the elections.

Launched in May this year, the Voto+ project has significant numbers. The special page of the ND+ portal has more than 400 thousand visits, which brings together special content created by all platforms of the ND Group. Multi-platform coverage and special content production is managed by the Center for Data and Investigative Journalism (NDI), which mobilizes effort, energy and resources to provide quality context and information to the state’s voters. Multi-platform coverage is supported by Fecam, Fiesc and Facisc.
