Centrão
A Genial/Quaest poll released on Sunday shows that 49% of voters believe Senator Flávio Bolsonaro will take his pre-candidacy for the presidency to the end. Belief is higher among Bolsonaro supporters, while Lula voters see the announcement as a negotiation tactic. The move comes amid family maneuvers that centrão politicians interpret as signs of potential withdrawals.

A Centrão faction voices concern over Flávio Bolsonaro's 2026 presidential pre-candidacy, fearing a right-wing split could boost outsiders like Pablo Marçal and aid Lula's re-election. Group leaders reject a Bolsonaro son as running mate on a ticket with Tarcísio de Freitas, though a dissidence proposes accommodation to prevent division. Michelle Bolsonaro, meanwhile, was furious at not being consulted on the candidacy launch.
