Over the next three days, Chegi’s campaign will continue in Beja, Elvas (Portalegre district) and Évora, where further unrest is expected in the afternoon.

Over the weekend, the campaign heads to Santarem, where there will be a dinner on Saturday, and Seixal (Setubal district), where a street party is planned on Sunday.

Chega’s tour of the country, with party vice-president and former ambassador Antonio Tangier Correa at the top of the list, continues in Aveiro with further unrest on Tuesday 4 June.

The next day, Wednesday, the candidates will travel to Porto, and on Thursday to Braga, where they will hold two more rallies in the afternoon, one on each day.

Number four on the list is Francisco Almeida Leite, a former journalist and former secretary of state in the government of Pedro Passos Coelho, and fifth is Chega leader Marcia Ferreira da Silva, who joined the party’s ethics committee.
