Bolsonaro family candidates declare assets ranging from 26 thousand euros to 1.36 million euros

SAPO Notícias29 August 2026 at 07:12

Eight members of the Bolsonaro family who will be competing for positions in Brazil's October general elections declared to the Electoral Court assets ranging from 26 thousand to 1.36 million euros. Among the candidates are figures such as Jair Bolsonaro, who is running for President of the Republic, and various relatives who are seeking seats in the National Congress and state legislative assemblies.

The declared values represent a large disparity between the different family members. While some candidates have relatively modest assets, others have considerable fortunes, with differences exceeding 50 times between the smallest and largest declared assets.

The declaration of assets is mandatory for all candidates in Brazilian elections and is made to the Electoral Court. This data becomes public and allows voters to know the financial situation of candidates before casting their vote in the October elections.

The Bolsonaro family has been a significant political force in Brazil, with several members holding elected positions. The participation of eight family members in these elections demonstrates the intention to maintain and expand the political influence of the clan on the national scene.
