The candidate for the Presidency of the Republic by the PSTU, Vera Lúcia, defended today (17) “guarantees of equality” in this year’s electoral dispute. According to her, in order to really advance, democracy needs to guarantee more space for smaller candidacies in free electoral propaganda.
Vera Lucia told Brazil Agency who starts the campaign “very firmly and with the involvement of the militancy of the PSTU and the Revolutionary Socialist Pole throughout Brazil”, but foresees that the current campaign will be full of “challenges, due to inequality and anti-democratic rules that govern the electoral process” .
The candidate reiterated the defense of democracy and once again repudiated any attempt to disrespect the results of electronic voting machines.
“Yesterday, during the inauguration of Minister Alexandre de Moraes in the TSE [Tribunal Superior Eleitoral], there was talk in defense of democracy and respect for the polls. But where are we, in the midst of an electoral process in which candidates, like mine, are outside the free electoral propaganda on TV and radio, and the great television debates?”, he asked.
“Democracy has to start by giving guarantees of equality in the dispute”, added the PSTU candidate for the presidency of the Republic.
Vera Lúcia will have today dedicated to interviews with the Alma Preta portal; to Rádio Jornal, from Aracaju (SE); and the Folha de S.Paulo.
