Brazil’s President Luiz InĂ¡cio Lula da Silva is expected to send a provisional measure to Congress this week to tighten the regulations for betting in Brazil.

The decision to use a provisional measure means the restrictions can take effect immediately, less than a month before the elections. This is the clearest indication yet that the sector is being used for electoral purposes to try and secure Lula’s re-election.
