Verified. The cited ThePrint Reuters report, published on February 29, 2024, contains the full English sentence and attributes it to Alexandre de Moraes; your version is a faithful excerpt with omissions in the middle and at the end. Separate Brazilian reporting on his February 28, 2024 remarks gives the matching Portuguese wording, and the TSE’s official notice says illicit AI use in election propaganda can lead to loss of registration or mandate.

Quote: "Those candidates who disrespect the rules and use artificial intelligence negatively [...] will face the penalty of having their registration revoked [...]" — Alexandre de Moraes, Brazil Supreme Court justice, 2024.
Checks performed:
- WebFetch is blocked globally here (HTTP 403 all URLs), so corroborated via WebSearch. Confirmed (Reuters/Buenos Aires Herald/JURIST, the same story as the cited theprint.in source_url): Moraes, head of Brazil's Superior Electoral Court (TSE) and a Supreme Court justice, said candidates "who disrespect the rules and use artificial intelligence negatively to harm their opponents and twist the meaning of information to win elections will face the penalty of having their registration revoked and, if already elected, their mandate revoked." The YouCongress quote is a faithful condensation with [...] ellipses.
- Author attribution: Correct — Alexandre de Moraes, Brazil Supreme Court justice / then-president of the TSE electoral authority.
- Year: 2024, correct (warnings ahead of Oct 2024 municipal elections). Older but relevant; KEPT. No genuine sourced 2026 quote located to add; not fabricating.
- Source: theprint.in carries this Reuters story and contains the quote.
- Relevance: Highly relevant to "Criminalizing deepfakes and malicious use of AI in electoral campaigns."
- Vote alignment: Vote "for" correct — Moraes is actively penalizing malicious AI use in elections, strongly supporting the statement.
