Petrolina electoral authorities announce voting location changes

The Electoral Court has announced changes to several voting locations in Petrolina, Pernambuco, ahead of the 2026 elections. Euclides Neto, the new Chief of the 83rd Electoral Zone, stated that these adjustments are being made due to structural requirements and voter demand following the closure of the electoral registry.

Additionally, a new voting location has been established at Escola Municipal Professora Barbara Maria Ribeiro Neta Santana in Cohab Massangano to accommodate regional demand. Voters are advised to check their updated locations via the e-Título app or the TSE website.
