Rio is kinda funny as a litmus test - federal government creates laws to try and curb some of the corruption, and Rio produces better and better corrupts - so far Rio is winning.
BTW wasn't it a few months ago the current governor wanted to leave to be able to run as a candidate, so he asked a supreme justice to step in in as governor, since there wasn't anyone else that technically could?
No, he left to be a Senate candidate and their vice governor left in 2025 to another role, then the next in line is the Legislative Assembly of the State of Rio de Janeiro president, but him was jailed and away from the role. So the next is a judge from the Justice Tribunal.
