The Regional Electoral Court of Rio de Janeiro postponed the judgment of Rebeca Ramagem's (PL) candidacy for the position of federal deputy. The partial result of the judgment stands at three votes to one in favor of approving the candidacy, but the analysis was interrupted by a motion for view filed by Judge Tathiana de Carvalho Costa.
The rapporteur of the case, Judge Paulo Cesar Salomão Filho, voted against approving the candidacy, stating that accepting it would be a "slap in the face of the Judiciary." He considered that Rebeca is the wife of Alexandre Ramagem (PL), convicted and fugitive for participation in the January 8 coup plot. Until now, however, the other votes have diverged from his.
Since 2025, Rebeca Ramagem has been living in the United States and conducting a remote campaign for the position of federal deputy. Her candidacy was confirmed in July of last year.
Rebeca is a public servant in Roraima, where she serves as a state attorney. Since her candidacy was confirmed, she has been accumulating vacation, extensions, and leaves of absence, surpassing eight months without working. In July, she requested a leave of absence from the position, but the text was interrupted.
