Marcelo Rebelo de Sousa, incumbent President of Portugal, has been re-elected for his second five-year term.
As usual, Portugal s pluralistic political climate saw candidates from left to center to right present themselves but the re-election of who the Portuguese refer to endearingly as Marcelo came as no surprise. The Portuguese President, despite the fact that his power base used to be the Social Democratic Party (political right), of which he was President between 1996 and 1999, understands the psyche of the Portuguese people and over five years synchronised every action with the soundbites that they wanted to hear and the actions that they wanted to see.
