The day’s agenda features a mix of public forums and targeted outreach as candidates vie for attention.
Several candidates are slated to participate in live debates, offering platforms for direct engagement with key issues. Augusto Cury, Romeu Zema, and Samara Martins are all scheduled to join a live debate on the Metrópoles YouTube channel, a significant opportunity to connect with a broad online audience.
Interviews with prominent media outlets form another cornerstone of the day’s campaigning.

Edmilson Costa will spend the day in São José do Rio Preto, engaging in street-level campaigning with panfletagem sessions in the morning and late afternoon.
