      Camilo brings together PT and social movements to discuss the 2018 elections.

      Governor Camilo Santana spent Sunday engaging in political maneuvering. Throughout the day, he held meetings with representatives of social movements and with PT (Workers' Party) leaders.

To the PT, Camilo also reaffirmed his commitment to helping strengthen the party in Ceará, with the expansion of its parliamentary representation in the 2018 elections.
