PGE gives favorable opinion on Deltan Dallagnol's candidacy

TL;DR

  • The Electoral Public Prosecutor's Office (MPE) issued a favorable opinion for Deltan Dallagnol's Senate candidacy registration.
  • The MPE argued that electoral cycles are autonomous and ineligibility should be assessed for each election.
  • Dallagnol's previous registration was revoked in 2023 due to disciplinary proceedings, but these have since been archived.
  • The Prosecutor's Office believes the previous TSE decision is specific to that election and does not project automatic ineligibility.
  • Dallagnol's candidacy was initially approved by the Regional Electoral Court of Paraná (TRE-PR) but contested by a coalition led by the PT.
