PT national president Edinho Silva met with former mayor Marília Campos in Belo Horizonte, but no decision was reached on her candidacy for the Minas Gerais government.

The meeting took place on Sunday (28/6) and included the participation of the president of the PT state directory, state deputy Leninha. The focus was convincing Marília to run for the state government in 2026.

Leninha stated that no decision was made and that new dialogues will occur in the coming days. Marília maintained her position of running for the Senate, after stepping down from her municipal position for that purpose.

The party sees the former mayor as the main alternative after Senator Rodrigo Pacheco declined. Different PT groups are pressuring for an own candidacy to the Palácio Tiradentes.
