BRAZIL: Campos and Silva launch their campaign
Six months after confirming their alliance, Eduardo Campos, from the Partido Socialista Brasileiro (PSB), and Marina Silva, the former senator and environment minister, launched their election campaign on 14 April. As expected, Campos will run for president; Silva for vice-president. Though Silva polls slightly stronger than Campos, her failure to register her party, Rede Sustenabilidade, means that she is reliant on the PSB to run for office. The ticket will be confirmed officially at the party conference in June.
