In an effort to increasingly explore the potential of digital media in his campaign, the candidate continued to publicize meetings with influential figures, such as Felipe Neto and Gregório Duvivier.

Lula also shared a new episode of his team's podcast and announced the live broadcast of “Brasil da Esperança”, a mega event that features the participation of several artists this Monday (26).

Today, I humbly add my voice to lift up the global consequences of the Brazilian election. You can watch my message, and more importantly the words of many brave Brazilian defenders of democracy & the planet in today's livestream event. Lula speaking soon! https://t.co/ARkVTXMnpS

Jair Bolsonaro (PL)

In the same vein as posts made last weekend, re-election candidate Bolsonaro (PL) attacked the PT governments this Monday (26), specifically targeting Lula's (PT) speeches on welfare policies.

Four hours later, the president returned to the network stating that “PT now sells itself as 'love'” to “deceive innocent people”.

Another four hours later, Bolsonaro called his opponent “mula", again. And he said that Lula's party “sells paradise and delivers hell”.

Ciro remembers that he denounced the Bolsonaro government's theft to his face during the #DebateNoSBT. And he regrets that many of these complaints are not published in the press. He explains why. #CiroNoFlow pic.twitter.com/gK6vqMwyTq

“The only one free against this [financial] system is me”, declared the candidate in a conversation on the 'Flow' podcast this Monday (26).

Ciro stated that the press does not publicize its complaints against irregularities and the “robbery” of the Bolsonaro government.

The candidate also published other excerpts from his participation on his Twitter.

Simone Tebet (MDB)

In the other corner of the country, in Cascavel, Ceará, another man was stabbed and killed due to political disagreement. Where are we going to stop? Our country urgently asks for peace! We make this commitment to Brazilians: with love, let's unite Brazil!https://t.co/8hLPOJ1Bgw
— Simone Tebet (@simonetebetbr) September 26, 2022

On this first working day of the last pre-election week, Simone took to Twitter in just two moments:

She lamented two new cases of political violence, denouncing the “ideological dispute” and the growing number of victims in the country.

Tebet also thanked Baleia Rossi for her support, who is a federal deputy and national president of the MDB, to which she is a member.
