Supreme Court crisis brings evangelical voters back to Flavio Bolsonaro, says Renato Meirelles

BBC News Brasil10 September 2026 at 20:37

The Supreme Court crisis is bringing evangelical voters back to support Senator Flavio Bolsonaro. This is the assessment of researcher Renato Meirelles, a specialist in the study of Brazil's middle class.

According to Meirelles, Flavio Bolsonaro's campaign could gain new momentum with this political moment. The researcher believes that turning the judiciary crisis into a moral crusade is the most efficient way to regain ground.

The analysis highlights that the Bolsonaro electorate seeks to recover the strength that former First Lady Michelle Bolsonaro had left open. Michelle, who is evangelical, represented an important link with this religious base during the Bolsonaro government.
