And the results of the voting, which took place last week, the region is among the ten entities with the lowest number of approving amendments 66,28%”, — said the analyst.

“at the same time the arrest was the signal the rest of the governors on the eve of regional elections in September: if something goes wrong, they will not find it too. It’s called “show who’s boss”. Indeed, in the course of the pandemic, the regional governors were given greater freedom of maneuver, and now the Federal government must demonstrate that the entire control in their hands,” concludes the analyst.
