President Lula, who is running for re-election with the PT, discusses campaign strategies in the second round in Brasília

Tuesday (6) was one of mobilization and coordination in the campaigns of the two candidates running for President of the Republic. President Lula, who is running for re-election with the PT, spent the day in Brasília discussing campaign strategies in the second round.

President Lula began the day with meetings at Palácio da Alvorada. He received three PT governors re-elected in the first round in Northeastern states: Jerônimo Rodrigues, from Bahia; Elmano de Freitas, from Ceará; and Rafael Fonteles, from Piauí.

On Monday (5), in a meeting with allies, Lula asked for everyone's engagement over the next three weeks and spoke about topics that should be debated, such as combating violence:

"The criminal has to go to jail and the territory has to be free for society to demonstrate. We can't continue watching the people paying tolls to get their gas, the people paying tolls to have the public policies that the State has to provide."

President Lula defended reform in the Judiciary:

"We are carrying something very serious on our shoulders, which is the promiscuity that was established in the Brazilian Supreme Court after these accusations. No one is above the law - not even the ministers of the Supreme Court are above the law. When you arrive in a situation where the Supreme Court is under the distrust of society, something is very serious. So, this is an issue that we will have to face in this campaign, it is 20 days."

This Tuesday (6), at the PT's national headquarters, the party's leadership met to discuss strategies for the second round. The party leader in the Chamber, Pedro Uczai, said that the campaign on social media will gain attention in the coming days and that he has already started to discuss the strategy with digital influencers.

"I think we have to do two things: expand society's support, from the point of view of democracy, sovereignty, each person's history. But much more is talking to the people. It is throughout Brazil that we will seek support. South, Southeast, Northeast, Central-West. We will seek this difference in votes in all regions of the country. That is why we are going to mobilize Brazil. Social networks will be one of the central focuses of both the president and the campaign coordination, as well as us, deputies, all leaders. It is the fastest way to talk to the people, the hope of a better country", says Pedro Uczai, PT-SC, government leader.

In the middle of the afternoon on Tuesday (6), Lula went to his campaign HQ. He started the first recordings of the electoral program for the second round and discussed the travel and rallies schedule.
