Eduardo Bolsonaro withdraws as first substitute on São Paulo Senate ticket
Eduardo Bolsonaro announced he will not serve as the first substitute on André do Prado's Senate ticket in São Paulo. He said the decision followed advice from lawyers and was driven by “grave legal insecurity” and “political persecution” affecting his family. Bolsonaro stated the move was intended to protect the ticket from potential impugnement under Brazil’s Clean Slate law, given his conviction by the Supreme Federal Court for coercion. His withdrawal allows Fernando Fiori de Godoy to take the first‑substitute slot and Rute Costa to become the second substitute. Bolsonaro also reaffirmed his support for André do Prado’s Senate campaign and for Flávio Bolsonaro’s presidential bid, indicating he will continue to campaign for the broader right‑wing project.
