A Genial/Quaest poll released Sunday shows 52% of Brazilians oppose reducing sentences for those involved in the January 8 attacks, including former President Jair Bolsonaro.

The survey interviewed 2,004 people from May 8 to 11, with a margin of error of two percentage points. About 39% said they favor the measure and 9% did not know or did not answer.

Opposition to reduced sentences is highest among non-Lula leftists at 77% and Lula leftists at 72%. Among Bolsonaro supporters, 73% back the proposal. A majority of independents, 58%, also oppose it.

Congress overturned President Lula's veto on the Dosimetry Law bill in late April. The law was promulgated by Senate President Davi Alcolumbre. Some 54% of respondents believe the change aims to benefit Bolsonaro.
