Michelle Bolsonaro is jeered and rebuts voter: "I love you in Christ"
Ex-first lady Michelle Bolsonaro (PL), Senate candidate for the Federal District, was the target of jeers and criticism during her passage through a voting location in Brasília on Sunday (4), the first round of the 2026 Elections. The incident ended in a verbal confrontation between Michelle and a voter.
The former first lady Michelle Bolsonaro (PL), candidate for the Senate for the Federal District, was the target of vaudeville and criticism during the passage through a polling place in Brasilia on Sunday (4), the first round of the 2026 elections. The episode ended in a verbal discussion between Michelle and a voter.
Michelle was accompanying federal MP Bia Kicis (PL), who is also vying for a seat in the Senate, at the Indi College on North Lake. The governor of the Federal District and candidate for re-election, Celina Leão, was also with the group.
Images released on social networks recorded the demonstrations and part of the discussion.
During the episode, a woman addressed criticism of the former first lady and claimed, among other phrases, that Michelle was with "dirty hands" and that she would "go to hell".
Michelle repeatedly responded to the electorate with the phrase “I love you in Christ,” in addition to making a heart gesture with her hands.
The exchange of words was recorded by people who were on site and quickly resonated on social networks.
After the repercussions of the images, Michelle Bolsonaro expressed itself through a note released to the press.
The candidate turned to a biblical-inspired message to explain the reaction to criticism. Michelle also said election day should be marked by respect and tolerance among people with different political views.
In her demonstration, she defended that political differences do not prevent a respectful coexistence during the electoral process.
Michelle disputes Senate for Federal District
Michelle Bolsonaro is competing this Sunday for one of the two seats in the Federal District in the Federal Senate.
Before the episode on Lake North, the candidate also spoke to journalists about the electoral scenario. Asked about Jair Bolsonaro, she said the former president was “anxious but confident” about the election.
Michelle also expressed confidence in the presidential candidacy of Flávio Bolsonaro and in the attempt to re-elect Celina Leão to the government of the Federal District. The declarations represent the political expectation of the candidate herself and not a projection of the result of the polls.
The first round of the 2026 elections takes place this Sunday across the country. In the Federal District, in addition to the two seats for senator, voters elect president of the Republic, governor, federal deputies and district deputies.
