My understanding is, if they choose not to refer to constitutional court, there would simply be no release. Thus, the lack of a release at this late hour would suggest that it’s not going to constitutional court (which in my view was a fig leaf hope anyway). So, the next question is whether he promulgates or vetos, presumably it would be dumb to veto without sending to const court, so it seems inevitable it will be promulgated. Those who understand the Portuguese “system” can correct me.
