Elections 2026: Goiatins, in Tocantins, will have a vote for mayor this Sunday (25)

Currently, Goiatins City Hall is under the command of councilor Lilian Maria Ribeiro (Republicans), who even registered a candidacy for the supplementary election, but withdrew from the dispute.

As the withdrawal occurred close to the voting date, her photo and ticket number will still appear in the ballot box. In this case, the votes directed to the candidate will be considered null.

According to the Regional Electoral Court of Tocantins (TRE-TO), the supplementary election will use the same electronic voting machines, the same voting locations and the teams of poll workers from the 2nd round of the 2026 Elections.

In Goiatins, voters must vote for governor, president and mayor, in that order. The candidate elected to the mayor's office must occupy the municipal executive until December 2028.

The change in command of Goiatins City Hall occurred after the TRE determined compliance with the decision that revoked the mandates of mayor Manoel Natalino (Republicans) and vice-mayor Zé Américo Filho (PDT).

The mandates were revoked in April 2026 by the TRE Plenum, due to abuse of economic power and illicit capture of votes.

Manoel Natalino and Zé Américo appealed to the Superior Electoral Court (TSE) and requested a suspensive effect on the decision, but the request was denied by the president of the Court, judge Adolfo Amaro Mendes, who ordered compliance with the ruling and the immediate removal of the two.

The defense of the revoked mayor and vice president only said that they expect the decision to be reversed by the TSE and the acquittal of both.
