"The darkness is over. Long live democracy," said Pamela, according to the... UOL"I feel like it's a matter of justice. That was his fight," he emphasized.
Pamela Silva followed the vote count at a restaurant in Foz do Iguaçu alongside her children Helena, 6, and Pedro (5), as well as supporters and sympathizers of the PT. According to the report, she believes that Lula's victory "should facilitate the progress of her husband's ongoing legal proceedings."
“Friends and family of Marcelo prepared for the special moment that would be the second round. They ordered 200 t-shirts in various colors with Marcelo's image on the front and Lula's number, 13, on the back. Virtually all of them were sold, including to people from other cities who didn't know the Workers' Party candidate and ordered them through social media,” says Pamela. “Each person contributed what they could,” the report highlights.
