By Marcelo Firmino/eassim.net - The Workers' Party (PT) will hold its State Executive meeting next Tuesday, the 24th, to decide whether or not to form an alliance with the government of Renan Filho (PMDB).
Party leaders have already been discussing this possibility with sectors within the government itself, and the governor has repeatedly announced his interest in having the PT (Workers' Party) in the state administration.
In Brasília this week, Renan Filho has a scheduled meeting with federal deputy Paulão, the leading figure of the PT party in the state, specifically to discuss this alliance.
Moreover, the PT-PMDB alliance in Alagoas was endorsed by former President Lula, after he was consulted by the state president of the party, lawyer Ricardo Barbosa.
However, there are segments within the PT itself that are reacting negatively to the alliance and would prefer the party to have its own candidates in 2018.
It turns out that the majority faction (CNB) understands that the alliance is the best way to mitigate the partisan challenges in the 2018 elections.
"For us at CNB, this is a mature issue. The current party climate demands a united effort to revitalize our party," said Adelmo dos Santos, a Workers' Party leader in the state.
