Runoff campaign rallies Security and welfare pledges

Oct 10

TV Brasil's complete runoff roundup reports Flávio Bolsonaro's São Gonçalo motorcycle motorcade with Douglas Ruas and Capitão Nelson. Flávio proposes eight years' imprisonment for cellphone theft with prison work, criminal responsibility at sixteen and driving licences at sixteen. The narration warns that the promises require congressional approval and could face STF challenge, and reports his conditional promise to receive the presidential sash from his imprisoned father. The report then follows Lula's Natal rally with Cadu de Lula, Fátima Bezerra and regional governors. Lula defends Bolsa Família, Farmácia Popular, above-inflation minimum-wage increases and the PT's Northeast record, seeks voters who did not back him in the first round, and alleges his opponent's cuts would fall on the poor. The report expressly retains Flávio's denial that he would abolish Bolsa Família. No pledge is reported as enacted.

At his October 10 São Gonçalo campaign appearance, Flávio Bolsonaro renews proposals for eight-year cellphone-theft sentences with prison work, criminal responsibility at sixteen and driving licences at sixteen. TV Brasil places the remarks in a motorcycle motorcade with Douglas Ruas and Capitão Nelson and warns the proposals depend on Congress and could face STF challenge. This is campaign advocacy, not enacted law.
