Clóvis Curubão (PT) was elected this Sunday (4) and will be the first indigenous person in history to occupy the position of state deputy in the Legislative Assembly of Amazonas (Aleam). The former mayor of São Gabriel da Cachoeira received 34,869 votes.
Of the votes received by Curubão, 17,563 were registered in São Gabriel da Cachoeira, the municipality where he was born and built his political career. Alone, the electorate in the city of Alto Rio Negro accounted for just over half of the PT's total vote in Amazonas.
An indigenous person of the Tariana ethnic group, Clóvis Curubão is 53 years old and was born in São Gabriel da Cachoeira, a municipality whose population is mostly made up of indigenous people. He was elected mayor of the city for the first time in 2016 and re-elected in 2020.
With the election to Aleam, Curubão reaches the state Parliament for the first time and begins to represent, in an unprecedented way, indigenous peoples in the Legislative Assembly of Amazonas.
What does Aleam look like next year?
The composition of the Amazonas Legislative Assembly (Aleam) will change in 2027. Of the 24 vacancies, 15 will be occupied by deputies who were re-elected, while, among the nine new deputies, eight candidates won their first term and one returns to the House.
Zé Ricardo (PT) was the candidate with the most votes, with 72,518 votes, and returns to Aleam after being a state deputy between 2011 and 2019. He was also a federal deputy between 2019 and 2023 and is currently a councilor in Manaus.
