Goiás Governor Caiado and Goiânia Mayor-Elect Mabel Ineligible for Eight Years Due to Political Power Abuse
Dec 11, 2024, 02:20 PM
The Regional Electoral Court of Goiás (TRE-GO) has ruled Governor Ronaldo Caiado (União Brasil) and Sandro Mabel (União Brasil), the elected mayor of Goiânia, ineligible for eight years due to political power abuse during the recent municipal elections. The court's decision was based on the use of the Palácio das Esmeraldas for political events, which were deemed as an unfair advantage. Both Caiado, who was elected with over 1.8 million votes, and Mabel, who won with 55.53% of the votes, have the right to appeal the decision. Caiado's allies express optimism about overturning the ruling. This ruling also affects the vice-mayor-elect, Cláudia Lira (Avante), who was similarly condemned.
