The Ministry of Justice registered 527 electoral incidents until 4pm this Sunday, 478 of which were electoral crimes. The MPE took legal action after candidate Romeu Zema used a cell phone in the voting booth in Minas Gerais and also asked for the removal of false content about ballot boxes at the TSE. Abroad, Flávio Bolsonaro leads in total number of votes, while Lula wins in more countries. Cameras caught a van launching 'santinhos' in Santarém, Pará, constituting a crime of graphic pollution.

The TRE-MS released a partial bulletin at 2pm with 75 incidents in electronic voting machines so far in the 2026 Elections in Mato Grosso do Sul, involving battery problems, technical failures and power outages. 26 of the 79 municipalities recorded incidents, including cases of accessibility such as voters carrying a plastic chair in Corumbá and elderly voters such as Zita Ishikawa Barbosa, aged 102, in Campo Grande, and the couple Luzia and Jair Flávio in Ribas do Rio Pardo. Between 8 am and 11 am, 25 incidents were recorded, with ten ballot boxes failing in the morning, with only one being replaced in Costa Rica. Heavy rain in Campo Grande caused power fluctuations, leaving voters in the dark in places such as the Rachid Saldanha Derzi Municipal School.

Technical problems in ballot boxes and overload in the power grid of schools in Novo Hamburgo forced around 20 pieces of equipment to operate on battery power, causing queues. In Porto Alegre, the waiting time to vote for Grêmio Náutico União exceeded 30 minutes due to the concentration of voters around midday.

In the second TRE-AM report, 23 incidents were recorded, nine in the capital and 14 in the interior. 14 ballot boxes were replaced due to technical problems, one ballot box is stopped at a university for analysis, there was a power outage in Borba with voting continuing using batteries, slowness at polling stations in the capital and a case of suspected exit polls in Rio Preto da Eva, where former mayor Anderson Sousa was arrested after attacking a PM sergeant.

An unidentified voter reported that it took more than 6 hours to vote at a school in Barroquinha, Ceará, due to the large number of voters and the limited space in the place. TRE-CE did not respond to g1's questions about the delay in voting.
