What Viseu did not say — and knew — is that the congress liberated Montenegro
At the PS congress, a critical analysis of what is failing within the party was expected. Amidst doubts surrounding José Luís Carneiro, one certainty remains: a leader with charisma will be needed.
The PS is facing a challenge of leadership and, above all, of existence.
Those looking for an answer to the question of whether the PS will break with the PSD or not were left in the dark. Carneiro threatens storms but does not want the PS to act as a blockade. He is also concerned about internal critics.
CNN Portugal commentator João Marcelino states that the unanimity surrounding José Luís Carneiro's leadership in his first months as Secretary-General of the PS is not, after all, genuine.
The PS secretary-general is accompanied by Eurico Brilhante Dias and Paulo Pisco.
José Luís Carneiro was re-elected today as Secretary-General of the PS with 96.9% of the votes cast in the direct elections where he was the sole candidate, with 91 polling stations still to be counted, according to an official party source.
José Luís Carneiro has already voted in Baião and expects a “higher turnout, with a greater expression of will than last time”. The vote to elect the PS secretary-general is taking place this Saturday, with Carneiro's re-election guaranteed as he is the only candidate for the position.

Sérgio Sousa Pinto looks back a hundred years to invoke the dangers of fascism — and cannot look back twenty to explain the PS's mistakes? Opinion by João Miguel Tavares
The party's current secretary-general, José Luís Carneiro, will run for re-election.
Carneiro could be the PS leader who returns the party to Belém, but he didn’t even bother to find a presidential candidate. And is Jorge Pinto the left’s disaster?
Presidential candidate Gouveia e Melo said today that his opponent António José Seguro did not even control the PS, having been replaced as leader of that party by António Costa, who then presided over 'a significant period' of governance.
Formal support from the former PS leader was not a surprise and elicited a positive but restrained reaction. Seguro maintains his call to vote against extremisms, whether overt or veiled.
Gouveia e Melo accused António José Seguro's campaign of cynicism and criticised opportunistic alliances within the PS. In northern Portugal, the candidate received support from Isaltino Morais and Rui Rio, who launched the fiercest attacks against his main rivals.
The presidential candidate backed by the PS is benefiting from infighting between Marques Mendes and Gouveia e Melo and from hesitations on the left.
The socialist machine has already been activated by the candidate, who assigned district campaign leadership posts only to PS members. On the ground there is talk of the need to 'intensify' mobilisation.
The PS parliamentary group says it carried out a 'non-exhaustive analysis' from 2020 to the present. 'This way of doing politics is not acceptable,' the socialists criticise.
José Luís Carneiro appeals for the PS to mobilise around António José Seguro's presidential candidacy. At the Socialist parliamentary group's Christmas dinner, the party leader made two calls: commitment to regain the confidence of the Portuguese and mobilisation in support of Seguro.
