Brazil 2026 election campaign developments

Overview

As the 2026 election cycle progresses in Brazil, political activity is characterized by regional campaign efforts, legislative proposals, and various allegations.

In Amazonas, candidate Willace Souza has accused Senator Eduardo Braga and the MDB of facilitating legislative maneuvers that allowed Âmbar Energia to take control of energy distribution. In Rio de Janeiro, a police report involving R$ 80,000 in cash found with an individual claiming to be an assessor for candidate Jorge Felippe Neto led the candidate to state the funds were documented personal assets.

Federal deputy candidates are introducing specific policy platforms, such as Marcos Tavares (PDT) proposing Bill 4910/2026 to protect street vendors, and João Marcos Luz (PSDB) focusing on rural development in Acre. Recent regional developments include financial disputes in Rio Grande do Norte regarding delayed municipal transfers and increased inspections of electoral propaganda in Santa Catarina.

New judicial developments have emerged across several states. In Roraima, the TRE-RR overturned an injunction prohibiting candidate Arthur Henrique from conducting propaganda in commercial establishments, ruling these are spaces for democratic engagement. Conversely, in the Federal District, the TRE-DF ordered the removal of an advertisement by candidate Júlia Lucy and the PL party, citing “discriminatory and aggressive content.”

In Acre, the TRE-AC denied the re-election candidacy registration for federal deputy Antônia Lúcia, a decision she intends to appeal. Polling updates indicate Raquel Lyra leads the Pernambuco gubernatorial race with 43%, followed by João Campos at 37%, while Daniel Vilela holds a 42.6% lead in Goiás. Additionally, the Alerj CCJ in Rio de Janeiro approved bills aimed at protecting women, including measures for children of femicide victims.
