Cities with combined votes for Lula and Tarcísio go from 33 to 66 in the 2nd round in SP

The number of cities in São Paulo where Lula won for president and Tarcísio for governor rose from 33 to 66 in the 2nd round.

In the 1st round, Lula led the vote for president in 39 of the 645 municipalities in São Paulo. In 33 of them, Tarcísio was the most voted for governor.

In the 1st round, Lula received 44.16% of the valid votes in São Paulo. Tarcísio was elected governor with 62.65% of the valid votes.

In the 2nd round, Lula increased the cities in which he won to 72. The combined vote took place both in Greater São Paulo and in the interior.

The number of cities in the state of São Paulo that voted for Lula (PT) and Tarcísio de Freitas (Republicans) went from 33, in the first round, to 66 in the second round of the presidential election this Sunday (25).

The survey using data from the Superior Electoral Court (TSE) considers the municipal results of the two votes and indicates that the municipal choice for president does not always coincide with the preference for governor.

In the first round, Lula received the most votes for president in 39 of the 645 municipalities in São Paulo. In six of them, the result was accompanied by the victory of Fernando Haddad (PT) in the dispute for government: Coronel Macedo, Diadema, Euclides da Cunha Paulista, Francisco Morato, Itapura and Sandovalina.

In the other 33 cities where Lula led the vote for president, Tarcísio was the most voted for governor. In the second round, Lula increased the number of municipalities in which he won the presidential race from 39 to 72. As Tarcísio had already won in 639 cities in the first round, crossing the results shows that the number of municipalities with this combination of winners reached 66.

In these municipalities, voters chose to vote for candidates from opposing parties and ideological camps.

In the first round, Lula received 44.16% of the valid votes in São Paulo and was behind Flávio Bolsonaro (PL), who obtained 47.03%. Tarcísio was elected governor in the first round, with 62.65% of the valid votes, against 36.42% for Haddad.

The difference between the results for president and governor shows that, in some municipalities in São Paulo, the candidates with the most votes for the two positions belonged to different political camps.

In the first round, 85% of the cities in which Lula won for president also gave Tarcísio victory for governor: there were 33 of a total of 39 municipalities.

In the second round, Lula came to lead in 72 cities in São Paulo, while Flávio Bolsonaro won in 573. Among the municipalities in which Lula received the most votes for president, 66 had chosen Tarcísio for governor in the first round.

The combination of votes occurred both in Greater São Paulo and in the interior. Among the municipalities in which Lula won the presidential race in the second round, but Tarcísio had received the most votes for governor in the first, are:

São Bernardo do Campo

Osasco

Carapicuíba
