2026 elections in Acre: start of voting and guidance for voters

Juviel Acácio de Souza, 70 years old, retired, is no longer obliged to go to the polls. However, he maintains the tradition he started at age 18 and has never failed. Even though he does not believe in the political class, he insists on exercising his right to vote.

"Today what changed was the people, just yesterday they were saying this in the colony. Today, no one good will enter [politics]. But, there is that desire to vote. That hope, if it is going to change something", he assesses.

The now customary spilling of saints in the streets during voting day is an electoral crime. The TRE informed that irregular practices will be strictly monitored, and voters themselves can help report them. This Sunday (4), there are already several leaflets spread across the capital of Acre, Rio Branco.

Voters will be able to use public transport buses free of charge on voting day, according to an agreement between TRE-AC and the city hall. According to the court, all lines will be available until 5 pm. The measure seeks to facilitate travel to voting locations.

Furthermore, TRE-AC reported that four people requested free transport for voters with disabilities or reduced mobility in the first round. The special service is part of the Seu Voto Importa program, available in this first year of operation in Acre only in the capital.
