Datafolha poll: Celina Leão and José Roberto Arruda tied in Federal District governor race

The race for Governor of the Federal District is too close to call, according to the first Datafolha poll released after official candidacies were registered. Current Governor Celina Leão of the PP party and José Roberto Arruda of the PSD party are in a technical tie. Arruda is a former executive chief of the capital, having served from 2007 to 2010.

The poll indicates a highly competitive election, with both candidates drawing significant support. The results suggest that voters have not yet coalesced around a single frontrunner. The upcoming campaign period will be crucial for both Leão and Arruda to solidify their positions and sway undecided voters.

This survey provides an early snapshot of voter intentions in the Federal District. As the election approaches, further polls will likely reveal shifts in public opinion and the evolving dynamics between the leading candidates.
