António José Seguro's campaign wrapped up the day in Coimbra, where he received support from notable figures of the PS. The candidate says he was not chosen by businessmen or parties and criticises parliament for still not having appointed representatives to the Council of State and the Constitutional Court.
Seguro stresses he made no deals with 'any party': "When I thought I could be useful I found the courage and went forward alone"

Context & Explainers
The Constitutional Court (Tribunal Constitucional) is Portugal's highest court for constitutional review, responsible for checking whether laws and statutes comply with the Constitution and for annulling or suspending unconstitutional measures. FNAM's push for a review matters because the court can strike down or block parts of the regional emergency services statute, directly affecting how emergency care is regulated.
