It is now up to the TSE to notify the regional courts to redo the new calculation of vacancies and inform the legislature for the diplomation and possession of the benefited parliamentarians.
Under the guidance of the President (-PB), it filed a resource for the Supreme last Monday.

Electoral leftovers are the vacancies in the Legislative Power that remains after filling the seats by the electoral quotient criterion – the total division of valid votes into a state by the number of vacancies.
The subject is the first to publicly oppose Motta to the president of the federal, (-AP), who actively acts behind the scenes for change. The immediate application of this trial will result in the departure of seven federal deputies and the diplomation of seven other – which four are allies of the Senator in Amapá.
The Senate President is appointed as the main responsible behind the scenes for convincing the Supreme Court to apply the change in electoral leftovers to the current legislature. This will lead to the loss of the mandate of deputies who oppose him in Amapá, such as Silvia Waiãpi (PL). On the other hand, four other allies of the senator will enter.
It will also be affected deputies elected by Tocantins, Federal District and Rondônia.
Motta guided the House’s lawyers to appeal and try to make the previous decision of the Supreme Court prevail that the change in electoral leftovers would only be valid from the election of 2024, without affecting the deputies exercising mandate.
The argument is that the then rapporteur of the case in the Supreme Court had already opined in 2023 so that the change determined by the Supreme in the rule only came into force from the municipal election, which was supported by the majority of ministers, in a trial that ended in 6 votes to 5.
However, with Lewandowski’s retirement in 2023, he replaced him and voted in favor of the immediate effectiveness of the trial by analyzing the resources of the parties that questioned the outcome of the election.
