Supreme Electoral Court (TSE) Judge Luiz Fux speaks during the session examining whether the 2014 reelection of president Dilma Rousseff and her then-vice president Michel Temer should be invalidated because of corrupt campaign funding, in Brasilia, on June 8, 2017. Judges on Brazil's electoral court were expected to start voting on the eve, in a case that could topple scandal-tainted President Michel Temer. If the court votes to scrap the election result, Temer -- who took over only last year when Rousseff was impeached -- would himself risk losing his office, forcing Brazil's congress to pick an interim president. / AFP PHOTO / EVARISTO SA (Photo credit should read EVARISTO SA/AFP via Getty Images)
