Apreciação de indicados ao STF pelo Senado Federal: dados sobre votação, tramitação, parti

Brazil's 28 presidential nominations to the Supreme Federal Court considered by the Federal Senate from 1989 to 2023. The data covers four analytical dimensions: voting percentages, procedural timing, political party roles, and the structure of 1,114 questions from confirmation hearings. It was compiled from official records for a doctoral thesis defended at the University of Brasília in 2026.

Strengths

• Includes detailed analysis of 1,114 questions and 129 other statements from confirmation hearings.
• Built from multiple authoritative sources: shorthand notes, Official Diaries, Senate reports, and STF documents.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
