Elections 2026

Brazil has 158.7 million voters eligible to vote this year, according to data from the TSE. The votes will be for president, governor, senator, federal deputy and state deputy (or district, only in the case of the Federal District). All positions have a four-year term, except that of senator, whose term is eight years.

In the TSE list, candidates are classified into two main situations: competing or unfit.

Competing:

Deferred;

Granted with appeal;

Canceled with appeal, rejected with appeal or request not recognized with appeal;

Awaiting or pending judgment.

Unfit:

Cancelled, revoked or rejected;

Deceased;

Resignation;

Not aware of the request.

In some lists, the same candidate appears more than once. The TSE informs that it will keep the names duplicated, but will indicate only one of the options as eligible ("running") until election day.
