Brazil 2026 election campaign developments

Overview

Political activity is intensifying across Brazil as the 2026 elections approach. In Acre, gubernatorial polling shows incumbent Mailza Assis leading with 36%, followed by Senator Alan Rick at 28% and Tião Bocalom at 15%. Campaigns in the state are gaining momentum; in Senador Guiomard, Mailza participated in a mobilization involving over one thousand vehicles supported by figures such as Gladson Cameli and José Adriano. In Cruzeiro do Sul, Jorge Viana’s Senate campaign held a mobile visit in the Miritizal neighborhood, drawing approximately 150 cars and motorcycles.

Nationally, a new poll from Instituto Veritá indicates a highly competitive presidential race. Flávio Bolsonaro leads Lula with 45.14% of valid votes to 44.65%. The data reveals sharp demographic divisions: Bolsonaro leads among white voters and evangelicals (62.7%), while Lula leads among black voters and those with no religion (63.0%).

In other regions, candidates continue to present diverse platforms. In Amazonas, Omar Aziz has proposed strengthening agricultural development through mechanization and increased credit. In Paraná, Senate candidate Gleisi Hoffmann has advocated for increased funding for the Unified Health System (SUS), stating, ‘Between the financial market and life, we have to invest in life.’

In Mato Grosso, Senator Carlos Fávaro is running for reelection with support from President Lula, though he remains mentioned in a legal investigation concerning the alleged diversion of R$ 30 million from a mining project in Aripuanã. Meanwhile, in Paraná, Hoffmann’s allies have petitioned the TSE to expand restrictions on Deltan Dallagnol’s campaign.
