Vasco da Gama announces 2026 presidential election date

Vasco da Gama has released the official notice for its 2026 Ordinary Electoral General Assembly. The election is scheduled for November 14, running from 10:00 to 22:00 Brasília time.

The voting process will utilize a hybrid format, combining in-person voting at the Calabouço headquarters in Rio de Janeiro with remote voting via an electronic platform. The election will determine the club president, the president of the General Assembly, and members of the Deliberative Council.

Six groups have been registered for the election. Current president Pedrinho has confirmed his candidacy for reelection, alongside Pedro Strozenberg. Other registered candidates include Sérgio Frias, Raul Lima Neto, and others whose leadership may be announced shortly. Voting rights are restricted to members in good standing who appear on the definitive list of voters. The process will be subject to an independent audit to ensure transparency.
