The União Brasil party has declared its support for the re-election of Raquel Lyra, the current Governor of Pernambuco, as well as announcing the pre-candidacy of Miguel Coelho for the Senate. This announcement was made following a meeting in Brasília with party leaders, including the national president of PSD, Gilberto Kassab. Coelho, who is the former mayor of Petrolina and currently serves as the president of the state branch of União Brasil, emphasized that this alliance represents a commitment to serve the people of Pernambuco.

Miguel Coelho's candidacy for the Senate was previously associated with a coalition led by João Campos, the mayor of Recife and a primary political rival of Raquel Lyra, who is also a pre-candidate for the governorship. Campos is expected to reveal the names of his allies, including Marília Arraes and Humberto Costa, soon. The political landscape in Pernambuco is becoming increasingly competitive as different parties position themselves for the upcoming elections, and this alliance could significantly influence the dynamics of the race.

The commitment from União Brasil to support Lyra's re-election reflects a strategic move to consolidate political power and gain support from key political players in the region. As the election approaches, the strategic decisions made by these leaders will likely play a pivotal role in shaping the future political framework of Pernambuco, impacting not only local governance but also the broader political climate in Brazil.
