Flávio Bolsonaro participated in the launch of PL pre-candidacies in Santa Catarina on Saturday, May 9. The event confirmed that Carlos Bolsonaro, former Rio councilman, transferred his electoral domicile to run for Senate in the state alongside deputy Carol de Toni.

Carlos Bolsonaro's change of electoral residence is part of a family strategy to expand the right's number of seats in the Senate, since the dispute in Rio de Janeiro is more competitive. The ticket formed by Carlos and deputy Carol de Toni ends disagreements among right-wing politicians in Santa Catarina that existed before the transfer.
