O caminho para virar votos e ganhar a eleição

Summary

The speaker argues that a wave of threats and attacks targeting public universities is intended to frighten people and disrupt mass mobilization. Activists should continue attending demonstrations and assemblies while organizing protest security and avoiding provocations.

He urges campaigners not to dismiss or insult working-class voters who support the far right. Instead, they should listen respectfully, acknowledge dissatisfaction with Lula or the PT, and discuss concrete issues. The speaker says the opposing program would threaten pensions and the BPC benefit, deepen cuts to health care and education, and increase privatization and household costs. Longer hospital waiting lists, fewer daycare places, and higher utility and fuel bills are suggested as relatable ways to explain these risks.

The speaker recommends using local voting and abstention data to focus outreach in neighborhoods where far-right support was strong. He cites places in Pernambuco where, he says, direct engagement could win votes. The campaign should focus on jobs, wages, retirement, public services, and the cost of living—not moralizing about corruption or the Supreme Court, or relying on celebratory campaign theatrics. He also stresses listening to criticism of the current government.

Finally, he rejects political neutrality in the election and calls on Pernambuco’s governor-elect, Raquel Lyra, to publicly support Lula. He argues that a Bolsonaro presidency would disadvantage Pernambuco and threaten public assets, including the state’s refinery.
