    Bolsonaro's campaign accounts are under review for possible illegal donations

    It’s unclear what effect the TSE allegations may have. Bolsonaro, who won Brazil’s presidential election in an Oct. 28 runoff, is due to take office on January first.

    Brazil’s top electoral authority said it has found irregularities in the campaign accounts of President-elect Jair Bolsonaro and gave him three days to explain. In a document published late Monday, the TSE electoral court described possible campaign donations from illegal sources, donations from unidentified donors and lack of information on how campaign funds were spent, among other issues.
