Marina will be a candidate for federal deputy, not Haddad’s vice, says Lula’s campaign coordinator

The leader of the opposition in the Senate and one of the campaign coordinators of former President Lula, Randolfe Rodrigues (Rede-AP), said this Tuesday (21) that the former Minister of the Environment, Marina Silva (Rede-SP) , will be a candidate for federal deputy and not vice president of Fernando Haddad (PT), as PT members had considered.

Randolfe is in São Paulo to launch the government guidelines for the Lula-Alckmin ticket.

The Network declared support for Haddad. The former mayor of São Paulo was wanted by the CNN but has yet to comment on Randolfe’s statement.

Allies heard by CNN they are waiting for Marina Silva to approach former president Lula, so that she is on the platform of the presidential race.

The PT program brings a nod for this movement to occur. Marina did not make personalized suggestions, but was contemplated with measures to preserve the environment, such as the goal of zero deforestation. Randolfe Rodrigues recalled that the understanding was part of Marina’s administration as minister.

wanted by CNN , Marina Silva did not respond to the report. On the 11th, she admitted the possibility of running for a seat in Congress. “I am indeed able to be a candidate for federal deputy for São Paulo”, said the former minister at the time.

After completing trips to the Northeast, Lula is expected to go to the North of the country, with passages through Amapá and Amazonas. Until then, allies hope to formalize Marina’s support for the former president.
