TSE minister rejects Novo party request over pro-Lula artist events
Original: partido novo
A minister of Brazil's Superior Electoral Court has rejected a request from the Novo party seeking to bar artists from holding events in support of President Lula. The party had argued the acts amounted to improper electoral advantage. The ruling keeps the events allowed, and the dispute is feeding wider debate in Brazil about electoral rules, celebrity campaigning and the impartiality of the electoral court ahead of future contests.
Why now: The TSE ruling against Novo's request touches on ongoing controversy over electoral law and support for Lula in Brazil.
