Lula's new campaign Ticket experience emphasized

Oct 4

Estado de Minas' public-speech excerpt carries Lula saying that a new campaign begins the next day and that a contest between two candidates will show the differences between proposals for Brazil. He recalls telling a business meeting that Brazilians would readily choose the presidential ticket and election winner. As his reason, he cites Alckmin's sixteen years governing the country's richest state and his own twelve years implementing what he calls the best social-inclusion policy in the country's history. These experience claims and electoral confidence remain Lula's campaign argument.

In an October 4, 2026 election-night statement in São Paulo, Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva says a new two-candidate campaign will start the next day and contrast proposals for Brazil. He presents his ticket's experience as a reason to choose it, recalling an earlier business-meeting argument and citing Alckmin's sixteen years governing the country's richest state and his own twelve years of social-inclusion policy, which he calls the best in Brazil's history. The source establishes his runoff campaign announcement and appeal, with the experience claims attributed to him.
