In Japeri, they don’t talk about anything else. The issue is that the city will be able to receive current president Lula and his predecessor Jair Bolsonaro. This is because the right versus left polarization in the municipality is official. The Bolsonaro clan, at the hands of Senator Flávio Bolsonaro, declared that the PL pre-candidate in the city is Tiago Careca (PL), opponent of Mayor Fernanda Ontiveros (PT). Behind the scenes, there is a dispute between Careca and Fernanda to see who has more prestige in Brasília. On one side, the state president of the PL, deputy Altineu Côrtes, and, on the other, the federal deputy and national vice-president of the PT, Washington Quaquá. The fact is that a president or former president has never landed in Japeri. Jair has already gone to Maricá to bless councilor Ricardo Netuno. The PT people believe in Lula’s visit due to the appeal of the city having a low HDI and being governed by the PT.
