Ana Simões Silva
Ana Simões Silva is a prominent member of the political party Chega, currently serving as the second candidate on the party's list for the Lisbon City Council. She was recently in the news due to the tight electoral competition in the Lisbon municipal elections, where provisional results indicated that her election as a councilor was in jeopardy owing to a minimal vote difference, with allegations of uncounted ballots potentially altering the final outcome in favor of the rival CDU party.
