Jair Bolsonaro, the former president of Brazil, remains under house arrest while his family gains political power. His son Flavio Bolsonaro won a surprising victory in the presidential election's first round. The right-wing Liberal Party saw significant success, indicating growing public support despite Jair's legal challenges. The new Congress will prioritize potential amnesty for Jair Bolsonaro in the upcoming session.
Contrary to pre-election polls, right-wing Senator Flávio Bolsonaro, leader of the Liberal Party and eldest son of former President Jair Bolsonaro, won the first round with 47.03% of the vote.
