Greca Joins Sandro Alex as Vice in MDB–PSD Pact

The deal seeks to strengthen Ratinho Junior’s chosen successor by adding Greca’s local popularity with a Senate slot still unresolved.

Overview

  • Rafael Greca announced on Friday, July 31, 2026, that he has withdrawn his pre-candidacy for governor of Paraná and will be the vice candidate on Sandro Alex’s ticket.
  • At the joint announcement Greca handed over his pre-campaign government plan and said its projects should be incorporated into Sandro Alex’s platform.
  • The agreement formalizes an MDB–PSD alignment backed by Governor Ratinho Junior and the União‑Progressista federation to broaden support for Sandro Alex and address his high voter unfamiliarity.
  • One Senate nomination remains open and the reported interest of journalist Cristina Graeml risks alienating Republicanos and other allied forces, which could prompt defections before state conventions.
  • Recent Genial/Quaest polling shows Sergio Moro leading near 39 percent with Requião Filho at about 18 percent and Greca at 12 percent, and the new alliance could shift vote flows or fail to close Sandro Alex’s recognition gap ahead of the campaign launch.
