Abstract

The article deals with impasses arising from the application of the judgment of the Supreme Court, which recognized the venue of the electoral justice for common crimes, when there is a connection with electoral crimes. There is a need to understand the limits of the understanding of the Supreme Court, both in the dogmatic configuration of electoral crime and the possibility of its absorption, as well as in the configuration of the connection authorizing the meeting of processes. It is important to recognize that the decision must consider the accusatory system, which gives the Electoral Prosecutor the final word on the existence of the electoral crime. Finally, the article points to the constitutional impasse of the extended jurisdiction of electoral justice, for common crimes, considering the composition of electoral courts, which have lawyers not subject to constitutional limitations imposed on judges.
