Tabata’s team has Alckmin’s allies, members of the Lula government, Luciano Huck’s mother and Temer’s daughter

The bet is that the experts announced by the deputy will constitute a “vaccine” against possible criticism that the deputy has no experience in public management

Congresswoman Tabata Amaral (PSB) formed a team to develop her government plan for the municipality of São Paulo with allies of Vice President Geraldo Alckmin (PSB), technicians who worked in PSDB administrations in the capital and in the state and members and ex – members of the Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva (PT) government.

The group also includes the daughter of Michel Temer (MDB) – the former president supports the re-election of mayor Ricardo Nunes (MDB) -, the mother of TV host Luciano Huck and doctor Ludhmila Hajjar, who refused the invitation to become Minister of Health in the government of former president Jair Bolsonaro (MDB) and will now coordinate the working group responsible for discussing the proposals for the São Paulo area.

The pre-candidate’s allies are working so that the government’s plan is an antidote to polarization and forces Nunes and Guilherme Boulos (PSOL) to discuss proposals for the city instead of trying to nationalize the elections with the support of Bolsonaro and Lula.

Luciana Temer will be the coordinator of the debates on Family, Social Development and Food Security. Professor of Constitutional Law at the Pontifical Catholic University of São Paulo (PUC-SP), she is a human rights activist and president of the Instituto Liberta, which works to combat sexual violence against children and adolescents.

The debate on urban development and social urban planning will be led by Marta Grostein. Huck’s mother is a professor at the Faculty of Architecture and Urban Planning at the University of São Paulo (USP). Recently, the presenter said that Tabata “will be mayor of Sao Paulo, God willing.”

Economist Pedro Fernando Nery, director of Economic and Social Affairs of Alckmin’s office at the Vice-Presidency of the Republic, is also part of the working group on urban planning. Other names linked to the vice president who are part of the Lula government are Floriano Pesaro, former member of the PSDB, director of Apex Brasil, and Carmen Silva, advisor to the Ministry of Development, Industry and Trade. The first will work on the debate on Cracolândia, while the second will deal with the Housing proposals.

Also coming from the government were Lula Leany Lemos, who was national secretary of Planning in the department chaired by Simone Tebet (MDB), and José Francisco Manssur, former special advisor to Fernando Haddad (PT) at the Ministry of Finance. He left his post earlier this year while arguing about regulating sports betting, an area in which he specializes.

Those around the pre-candidate believe that the team she has formed should serve as a kind of vaccine for possible criticism that Tabata has no experience in executive positions. “The government’s plan creates room for action. Preparing a good plan and having a good team is the first sign of a successful pre-campaign,” said Márcio França.

The general coordinator of the government plan is Vivian Satiro, who was secretary under Bruno Covas, but left the municipality after the death of the toucan and the rise of Nunes to mayor. It is the same case of the former secretary of International Relations, Luiz Alvaro, who broke with the mayor in 2021 and is now part of the Tabata group on Tourism and Creative Economy, and Orlando Faria, former secretary of Construction in the Covas government and political coordinator of the congresswoman’s campaign.

Tabata’s approach to names linked to the PSDB is his strategy to position himself as the heir to the Tucan electorate in the capital, at the same time that an alliance with the party would disprove the thesis that the candidacy is not a solitary escape.

The MP so far does not have the support of other parties. Tabata articulated the exit of presenter José Luiz Datena from the PSB, his own party, and his entry into the PSDB. The idea is that he is nominated vice president and seals the alliance between the two parties.

Datena has had electoral setbacks throughout her career and has already given up on leaving television four times to run for office. Tabata’s allies believe it is worth taking the risk that the presenter will give up for the fifth time or agree to run for mayor as one wing of the PSDB wants because she has to make risky moves if she wants to go to the second round — the MP comes in third place in the latest electoral polls, with around 10% of voting intentions, while Nunes and Boulos are on the 30% threshold.
