Various Bolsonaro allies are engaged in various levels of soft decamping from Flávio, ranging from actively telling supporters not to protest the election result to privately telling him to recognize the result and shut the fuck up.

A major factor in this is that his party won a bunch of legislative seats in the first round of the election, so really *they* did great and *he* lost, and by making noise or delegitimizing the election he's jeopardizing their wins.

One such ally is Kassio Nunes Marques, the supreme court justice that Jair Bolsonaro appointed pretty much specifically as a favor to Flávio, and who currently presides the superior electoral court in which he's been running interference for Flávio throughout the election.
