Fernando Haddad 2018 presidential campaign
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The 2018 presidential campaign of Fernando Haddad for the Presidency of Brazil was announced on 11 September 2018, two weeks after the candidacy of Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, the former President of Brazil, was denied by the Superior Electoral Court for violating the Ficha Limpa (Clean Slate law). Haddad, who had been Lula's running mate, replaced him as the candidate and PCdoB state legislator Manuela d'Ávila became Haddad's running mate.[1]
