Overview
- Datafolha’s nationwide survey, published Sunday, found 59% favor Jair Bolsonaro serving his sentence at home, 37% want a return to prison, and 5% are undecided.
- The poll interviewed 2,004 people in 137 municipalities between April 7 and 9, with a two-point margin of error.
- Bolsonaro is under a 90-day humanitarian house arrest that Minister Alexandre de Moraes authorized on March 24 for treatment of bronchopneumonia as he serves a 27-year, three-month sentence for leading an attempted coup.
- Moraes has said he will reassess the arrangement at the end of the 90 days and may order a medical examination before deciding whether it continues.
- A medical report to the Supreme Court says his condition has improved, with blood pressure controlled, though he still reports fatigue and brief balance problems during ongoing cardio-respiratory rehabilitation.
