Summary:

  • Luís Montenegro verbalized "absolute majority" for the first time in the Lisbon campaign, expressing strong confidence in Carlos Moedas' victory.

  • Carlos Moedas described the election as a "choice of a generation," pitting moderation against chaos in a high-stakes political battle.

  • The final campaign rally featured a nationalized discourse, with Montenegro's involvement amplifying the significance of the local elections.

In a dramatic finale to Carlos Moedas' campaign in Lisbon, Luís Montenegro, the leader of the PSD, made a significant announcement that electrified the crowd. Montenegro confidently predicted an absolute majority for Moedas in the upcoming elections, marking the first time this phrase has been explicitly used in the Lisbon campaign.

Moedas himself framed the election as a pivotal moment, declaring it "the choice of a generation" and emphasizing the stark contrast between "moderation and chaos." This rhetoric underscores the high stakes involved, with voters set to decide on Sunday.

The event highlighted the nationalization of the campaign discourse, as Montenegro brought a broader political perspective to the local race. The atmosphere was charged with anticipation, reflecting the intense competition and the potential for a major political shift in Lisbon.
