Candidates for the government of Mato Grosso do Sul vote this Sunday

Candidates from Mato Grosso do Sul voted this Sunday (4) in Campo Grande, Dourados, Corumbá and Ribas do Rio Pardo.

João Henrique Catan (New)

João Henrique Catan voted at 7:40 am at the Professor Arlindo Lima Municipal School, in Campo Grande.

The candidate went to the polling place accompanied by his mother Ana Cristina Cansado Soares, his wife, Juliana Domingos Catan and their two children.

"The streets are the best of temperatures and it's the best way for us to interpret what the public is feeling. I was on the streets for six days, 24 hours, without returning to my house. So people would see us in our patriotic trailer", he said.

Economist Renato Gomes (DC)

Renato Gomes voted at 9:30 am at the Bernardo Franco Baís Municipal School, in Campo Grande. He arrived at the polling place accompanied by the vice candidate, Roberto Patzlaff. The candidate took about 40 seconds to vote. In his speech, he criticized the Electoral Court for having removed 10 videos he posted on social media.

"I am very sorry and, today, is a day, in fact, of great sadness for me, because I ran a clean campaign, I didn't promote a cent, I didn't have a cent promoted and, even so, a plot orchestrated by the parallel powers of this state overturned more than 10 of my statements. This is absolutely unacceptable for the people of Mato Grosso do Sul."
