Brazil lower house begins session ahead of impeachment vote
As the vote neared 342 in favor of impeachment, Workers' Party leader in the House Jose Guimaraes said, "The coup 3 plotters have won." He called it a "temporary defeat" and said it does not mean the war is over.
"The fight will continue in the streets and in the senate," he said.
Opposition 4 to Rousseff has increased in recent months, with accusations 5 that she illegally covered up government budget shortfalls in 2014 to increase her chances for reelection.  Rousseff denies the accusations.
Her critics blame her for the country's recession and a massive corruption 6 scandal involving state oil company Petrobras.
The 68-year-old leader was first elected in 2010, then again in 2014, continuing 13 years of leadership by the leftist Workers' Party.
The first in line to carry out the remaining two years of her mandate 7 would be Vice 8 President Michael Temer of the Brazilian Democratic Movement, whom Rousseff has accused of being part of the movement to remove her from office.
