Roberto Silva withdraws his candidacy for president of the Palmeiras Council and supports the opposition
The election for the presidency of the Palmeiras Deliberative Council was withdrawn at the last minute. Roberto Silva, who presented himself as an independent candidate (neither from the situation nor from the opposition), withdrew his name from the race. He will support Carlos Faedo, representative of the opposition. The election takes place on Monday night (6) and Roberto's decision to withdraw took place hours before voting began. At first, he only communicated with people close to him and new political allies, from the group that opposes the current administration. Afterwards, the counselor issued a note justifying his position.
