Minister Gilmar Mendes, from the STF, annulled the precautionary removal of judge Tutmés Airan, from the TJAL, determined by the CNJ after a decision that suspended the PF's investigation into electoral fraud in Alagoas, considering that there was no serious disciplinary misconduct and that the removal threatened the independence of Justice during the electoral period.

On Thursday (1st), the candidates for the Presidency and Government of São Paulo ended their electoral propaganda in the first round on TV, with promises to combat crime, protect women and attacks between opponents. The pieces addressed topics such as the crisis in the STF involving Daniel Vorcaro, the 'Dark Horse' case, the ban on betting and fake news about Our Lady of Aparecida. Lula adopted the attack as the axis of his campaign, while Flávio Bolsonaro tried to present himself as the target of the PT offensive. Tarcísio de Freitas highlighted social programs and the SP Mulher Segura application, avoiding mentioning Haddad or privatizations. Haddad asked voters to leave 'political passions' aside. The campaign also gave space to female voters, with black presenters and a focus on safety, health and employment. Data shows that 52.4% of households have a woman as head of the family and 26% of the female electorate is undecided. If there is a second round, free advertising will resume on October 9, with ten minutes for each position.

Abstention in the first round of presidential elections has grown by four percentage points since 2006, reaching 20.79% in 2022 (32.2 million absentees). In a tight dispute between Lula and Flávio Bolsonaro, experts point out that abstention tends to penalize Lula, as it hits his traditional electorate with low education and income more heavily, especially in the Southeast, while the Northeast shows a greater willingness to vote.

The elections for senator take place this Sunday (4), from 8 am to 5 pm, Brasília time. Each voter can vote for two different senators, with the second vote canceled if there is a duplication.
