Next president could make at least four appointments to Brazil’s Supreme Court

The next president of Brazil could appoint at least four justices to the country’s Supreme Court.

The Senate must approve nominees, and its shift to the right could limit Lula’s choices if he wins.

Flávio Bolsonaro may have an easier path to approval if he becomes president.

The Senate can also vote to impeach justices, but that requires more votes than approving a nominee.
