**Cleitinho Azevedo (Republicanos) leads the 2026 Minas Gerais gubernatorial race with consistent first-round polling support of 29–32% in late August surveys from Quaest and Datafolha, well ahead of Patrus Ananias (PT) at 11–12%, Alexandre Kalil (PDT) at 10–12%, and lower shares for Mateus Simões (PSD), Gabriel Azevedo (MDB), Flávio Roscoe (PL), and others.** His advantage stems from broad appeal across voter segments, including strong backing among bolsonarista-leaning voters, combined with a fragmented field where no rival consolidates significant support. Recent catalysts include Cleitinho’s formal candidacy confirmation on August 7 after earlier hesitation, followed by the start of official campaigning and multiple polls showing him dominant in runoff simulations (48–51% against top challengers). High undecided and blank/null shares (around 25–30% combined) leave room for late shifts, but the current polling consensus underpins trader positioning for a Cleitinho victory on or before the October 4 first round or October 25 runoff.
