By SectorWire desk ·
Summary
A Quaest poll published on Wednesday found that 72% of respondents approved banning sports betting and online casino sites in Brazil. Flávio Bolsonaro had 46% of voting intentions against Lula’s 44%, while government disapproval stood at 48% and approval at 45%. The poll asked about the ban without explaining its practical consequences, and MP 1.394 still depends on Congress.
Why it matters
The proposal could affect betting operators and the sector’s workers, clubs and public revenue if Congress advances the ban.
