The incumbent governor, Izolda Cela, who became governor after the resignation of Camilo Santana (PT) is affiliated to the Democratic Labour Party (PDT). She was eligible for a second term, but the party's nominee was Roberto Cláudio, after an internal dispute where the former mayor of Fortaleza won. For the election to the Federal Senate, the seat occupied by Tasso Jereissati, elected in 2014 by the Brazilian Social Democracy Party (PSDB), was at dispute. However, the senator said he would not run for reelection.
