Governor Gladson Camelí of Acre has officially declared his pre-candidacy for the Senate in the 2026 elections during a political event held in Rio Branco. The announcement took place on the evening of Monday, the 9th, and was attended by various political leaders from allied parties, indicating a strong support network in his pursuit for the Senate seat.

During the event, the vice-governor Mailza Assis also announced her intent to run for the state governorship, while current Senator Márcio Bittar expressed his desire to seek re-election for his Senate position. This gathering of political figures marked a significant moment of unity among the coalition parties as they prepared to strengthen their electoral chances through alliances.

Camelí emphasized the importance of forming this political alliance to enhance their collective presence in the electoral race and to engage in dialogues with additional parties. As he continues his second term as governor until April 4, he plans to initiate the necessary steps for detaching from his current role to ensure his eligibility for the Senate candidacy.
