A daily poll finds most Portuguese want defeated presidential candidates to declare endorsements and that any such support should favour António José Seguro. The piece argues Montenegro was right not to declare backing, but if he did it should be for Seguro, while emphasising that centre-right support for Seguro is not a blank cheque and would bring concrete political responsibility. It also notes former PSD leader Rui Rio has publicly said he will vote for Seguro ahead of the 8 February second round against André Ventura.
