Eduardo Paes
The PT's Rio de Janeiro state directory unanimously approved support on Saturday (18) for Eduardo Paes (PSD)'s candidacy for state governor and Benedita da Silva (PT) for Senate. The move aims to bolster President Lula's campaign platform in the state, where he lost in 2022. The alliance comes amid a political vacancy in the Rio state government.

Mayor Eduardo Paes (PSD) stepped down from Rio de Janeiro city hall on March 20, 2026, delivering a speech with pre-campaign tones for state governor and facing an awkward musical improv in front of the TRE-RJ president. Singers Dudu Nobre and Seu Jorge changed samba lyrics to support Paes for governor, prompting Paes to jokingly blame the singer. Early electoral propaganda is illegal before August 16.
