The candidate for re-election to the government of São Paulo, Tarcísio de Freitas (Republicans), stated this Friday (2) that, in a possible second round for Flávio Bolsonaro (PL) in the race for the Presidency, he is willing to help him in the campaign in São Paulo and "even outside the state".

The statement was made during the candidate's last campaign walk through the center of the capital of São Paulo this Friday (2), two days before the election. Tarcísio was accompanied by the mayor of São Paulo, Ricardo Nunes (MDB), and the candidate for Senate André do Prado (PL).

"If the dispute actually ends in São Paulo on Sunday, I would also, in any case, even if it didn't end, be at Flávio's disposal to help him a lot in the second round here in São Paulo and even outside the state", stated Tarcísio.

During the agenda, the candidate thanked the mayors who, according to him, supported his campaign. Tarcísio stated that street activities will end on Saturday (3), with a motorcade between Santa Bárbara d’Oeste and Americana.

"I want to thank the support I received from all the mayors on this journey. Tomorrow we will have a series of closing activities, organized by the mayors themselves in all corners of the state. So here is my recognition and gratitude", he said.

Tarcísio also stated that the choice of the Center of São Paulo for the last walk in the capital was intended to symbolize the partnership between the state government and the City of São Paulo.

During the agenda, the candidate cited actions and projects carried out in partnership with municipalities in São Paulo, including initiatives in the areas of transport, housing, public safety, health, sanitation and infrastructure.

Regarding the election for the Senate, Tarcísio also commented on the withdrawal of Ricardo Salles (Novo) from the dispute and his declared support for André do Prado and Guilherme Derrite (PL). According to Tarcísio, voters had time to assimilate the change and he is optimistic about the result.

"We are very optimistic about the result for the Senate. We are really optimistic. I think we will have an extraordinary result," he stated.

When talking about the electoral dispute, Tarcísio also criticized judicial decisions that, according to him, interfere in the public debate. He stated that there is a need for "self-restraint" on the part of the Judiciary and compared the role of judges to that of football referees.

"Who is the best referee in a football game? He is the one who lets the match flow. He is the one who follows the rules. He is the one who lets the game happen. He is the one who allows the spectacle. He is not the main actor", he declared.

At the end of the agenda, Tarcísio left a message to voters and said that each one should seek, among candidates, characteristics such as "honesty, humanity, work capacity" and "ability to deliver".

"May each voter be able to make the best decision. That's what we ask God for," he said.
