Castro Mayor Challenges Politicians to Support Flávio Bolsonaro Gains Momentum

Mayor of Castro challenges politicians from the Campos Gerais region to express support for the presidential candidate of the Republic Flávio Bolsonaro (PL). The challenge was launched by Reinaldo Cardoso in a video posted on social media on Friday, during the campaign of the second round of the 2026 elections. The initiative gained repercussions and began to mobilize other political leaders in the region.

In the recording, the mayor of Castro, also known as Dr. Reinaldo, appears speaking directly to the followers and asks for support for the candidacy of Flávio Bolsonaro. He defends the need for changes in the country and says that the decision of the voters will have consequences for the next generations.

The video draws attention to the format chosen by the mayor, who turned his political demonstration into a challenge aimed at other public representatives and leaders in the region.

Reinaldo Cardoso talks about the future of Brazil

At the beginning of the recording, Reinaldo Cardoso refers to his own age and presents the reasons for his political positioning.

"I, probably the oldest mayor of Paraná, am here to ask the population to support our candidate Flavio. Brazil needs a change," he said.

During his demonstration, the mayor also mentioned concern for the future of Brazilian families.

“So that the future of our children, our grandchildren, is guaranteed in a much better way,” he said.

The statements represent the political assessment of the mayor on the national scene and the presidential dispute.

One of the main moments of the publication occurs when Reinaldo Cardoso invites other politicians and acquaintances to participate in the initiative.

Among the names mentioned are the mayor of Carambeí, Elisangela Pedroso, and the mayor of Piraí do Sul, Henrique de Oliveira Carneiro.

The mayor also cites Rodrigo Silva and Luizão, identified as the military businessman Luiz Carlos da Silva.

“In the name of our future, I am making a challenge here,” Reinaldo said, before summoning the participants.

The proposal is that guests also publish videos expressing support for the presidential candidacy and continue the current, encouraging new participation.

Challenge begins to receive answers

The mobilization initiated by the mayor of Castro has already had a public response. Rodrigo Silva, Castro’s municipal secretary for Planning and Heritage, published a recording in which he declared support for Flávio Bolsonaro and followed up on the challenge.

In the publication, Rodrigo also summoned other leaders, among them the municipal secretary of Public Security of Castro, Fábio Pinheiro, the federal deputy Marco Brazil, the state deputy Márcio Nunes and Kiko Proença.

Participation demonstrates how the challenge format allows an individual political manifestation to be reproduced by other supporters on social networks.

Mobilization takes place during the second round

The initiative comes amid the presidential dispute between Flávio Bolsonaro (PL) and Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva (PT), who reached the second round of the 2026 elections.

The vote is scheduled for next Sunday, October 25. In this period, candidates and supporters intensify actions to win votes and stimulate voter participation.

In the Campos Gerais, the demonstration of the mayor of Castro adds a new element to the regional political movement, especially by direct summoning mayors and other public figures.

The challenge launched by Reinaldo Cardoso also highlights the use of social networks as an instrument of support and electoral mobilization in this final campaign line.
