Bolsonaro's political future uncertain as trial begins.

Brazil's electoral court is delivering its ruling on charges against ex-president Jair Bolsonaro for breaking the law with his unproven allegations against the voting system, a case that could eliminate him from the 2026 presidential race. Bolsonaro did not attend the trial and faces a possible eight-year ban on running for public office if convicted. Despite his legal woes, Bolsonaro remains a powerful force in Brazilian politics, with a large base that is very much influenced by him.
