Tarcísio Rejects 2026 Presidential Bid, Endorses Flávio Bolsonaro, Seeks São Paulo Re‑election

Overview

• In Suzano, Tarcísio said “Flávio is my candidate” and declared the right will unite around the senator.
• He insisted he never had a presidential project, saying “Brasília, no” and reiterating his plan to run for a second term in São Paulo.
• He described the “new CEO” message as a vent against the PT and a call for a manager to confront fiscal and moral crises.
• Flávio Bolsonaro urged supporters not to pressure the governor, saying a more explicit endorsement will come at the appropriate moment.
• Allies of Flávio are considering fielding Filipe Sabará for governor via the PP to secure a pro‑Flávio platform, and Sabará says Tarcísio promised support “at the right time.”
