Waldez Góes desiste de candidatura ao Senado e permanece no ministério

O ministro da Integração e do Desenvolvimento Regional, Waldez Góes, anunciou que desistiu de concorrer ao Senado pelo Amapá para permanecer no cargo, atendendo a um pedido do presidente Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva. A decisão ocorre após pesquisas o colocarem em quarto lugar. Lula planeja apoiar a reeleição de Randolfe Rodrigues no estado.

Waldez Góes, ministro da Integração e do Desenvolvimento Regional, divulgou uma nota informando que recuou da disputa pelo Senado no Amapá a pedido de Lula. Ele contava com o apoio do presidente do Senado, Davi Alcolumbre (União-AP), mas optou por ficar no governo.

Um levantamento da AtlasIntel, divulgado em 1º de abril, posicionava Góes em quarto lugar nas intenções de voto. No Amapá, o presidente Lula deve respaldar a candidatura à reeleição de Randolfe Rodrigues (PT), atual líder do governo no Congresso.

Na mesma quinta-feira, 2 de abril, o ministro da Previdência Social, Wolney Queiroz (PDT-PE), também anunciou que desistiu de concorrer a uma vaga de deputado federal para continuar no cargo.
