Rovai: Aécio is more rejected in Minas Gerais than in the rest of the country.

Research conducted by both the PT and PSDB parties in Minas Gerais reportedly reached the same conclusion: Senator Aécio Neves has lost ground not only nationally but also locally; the ousted president of the PSDB has staggeringly high rejection rates in the state, completely ruling out the possibility of him risking a candidacy for governor or senator; the PSDB member reportedly has a higher rejection rate in Minas Gerais than the Brazilian average.

Rovai's Blog - Polls conducted by both the PT and PSDB parties in Minas Gerais reportedly reached the same conclusion: Senator Aécio Neves lost not only nationally, but also locally.

The ousted president of the PSDB party has extremely high disapproval ratings in the state, which completely rules out the possibility of him risking a candidacy for governor or senator.

To give you an idea, the blog's source stated that the candidate from the PSDB party would have a higher rejection rate in Minas Gerais than the average in Brazil.

Aécio was left with the option of running for federal deputy in an attempt to maintain parliamentary immunity and only be judged for the crimes he is accused of in the Supreme Federal Court, where he has friends like Gilmar Mendes, Alexandre de Moraes, and Marco Aurélio Mello, who reinstated his Senate seat with lavish praise.

“The appellant [Aécio] is a native-born Brazilian, head of a family, with a commendable political career – a four-time federal deputy, former president of the Chamber of Deputies, governor of Minas Gerais for two consecutive terms, the runner-up in the 2014 presidential elections – said to be fraudulent – ​​with 34.897.211 votes in the first round and 51.041.155 in the second, and today continues to be, despite the implemented injunction, a senator of the Republic, currently on leave from the presidency of one of the largest parties, the Brazilian Social Democracy Party.”
