The president of the Superior Electoral Court, minister Nunes Marques, ordered this Monday (8) the suspension of an electoral survey that pointed to a drop in Flávio Bolsonaro's performance after the revelation of messages and audios in which the pre-candidate for president asks Daniel Vorcaro for money to finance the film 'Dark Horse', about former president Jair Bolsonaro. At the request of Flávio and the PL, Nunes Marques monocratically decided that the Atlas Intel institute can no longer publish the results of that round of research carried out in May, shortly after the conversation was revealed. The minister's decision says that the inclusion of questions about the Banco Master scandal constitutes “methodological contamination”. Atlas Intel states that these questions were presented after the electoral questionnaire and that they had no impact on the result – other institutes also showed a downward trend in Flávio's performance. The TSE plenary began voting this Tuesday to validate or overturn Nunes Marques' injunction. In this episode, Natuza Nery interviews two guests. First, she speaks with João Francisco Meira, president of the Public Opinion Council of the Brazilian Association of Research Companies, about the unprecedented nature of the decision in a higher court. Then, Joel Pinheiro participates, who assesses the importance of research so that voters are well-informed. Guest: João Francisco Meira, PhD in Political Science, founding partner of the Vox Populi institute and president of the Public Opinion Council of the Brazilian Association of Research Companies, and Joel Pinheiro, economist, master in philosophy from USP and commentator for GloboNews. The O Assunto podcast is produced by: Luiz Felipe Silva, Sarah Resende, Carlos Catelan, Luiz Gabriel Franco, Juliene Moretti, Stéphanie Nascimento and Guilherme Gama. Presentation: Natuza Nery.
