Goiás Governor Ronaldo Caiado and Mayor Sandro Mabel Declared Inelegible for 8 Years Due to Electoral Abuse
Dec 11, 2024, 01:38 PM
The Electoral Court of Goiás (TRE-GO) has ruled that Ronaldo Caiado, the Governor of Goiás, is inelegible for eight years due to political abuse of power during the recent municipal elections. The court also annulled the election of Sandro Mabel, the newly elected mayor of Goiânia, citing the use of official resources to support Mabel's campaign. Both Caiado and Mabel were found to have engaged in activities that favored Mabel's candidacy, specifically through events held at the Palácio das Esmeraldas, the governor's official residence. While both individuals deny any wrongdoing, the decision allows for an appeal. This ruling highlights ongoing concerns regarding electoral integrity and the use of political power in Brazil's electoral processes.
