Most of the mayoral candidates supported by President Jair Bolsonaro in the elections this Sunday (15) were not elected.
In the final stretch of the electoral campaign, Bolsonaro made “lives” in the Palacio de la Alvorada ask for votes for 13 mayoral candidates which he supports, in addition to other candidates for councilman and Senate candidate for MT (the state had a complementary election for the vacancy in the Senate after the impeachment of Selma Arruda, last year).
