Brazilian electoral court rulings and regulations

Overview

Brazilian electoral courts continue to manage legal challenges and regulatory issues during the 2026 election cycle. In Amazonas, the TRE-AM annulled votes and revoked party certificates following the discovery of gender quota fraud in Tapauá. In Maranhão, judicial actions have focused on campaign conduct and transparency. The TRE-MA has suspended several opinion polls, including those from institutes Aferir, AtlasIntel, Veritá, and IPPI, due to methodological irregularities and failures to identify payers. Most recently, the court ordered the immediate suspension and removal of a poll conducted by IPPI Pesquisas e Consultoria Ltda. and commissioned by Café Quente Produções Ltda. The ruling followed a challenge by the Coligação Avanço por Todo Maranhão, which noted that the field for identifying the party responsible for payment was left blank in the PesqEle system. The court emphasized that under 2026 electoral legislation, it is mandatory to explicitly name the entity responsible for funding, including their CPF or CNPJ. Failure to remove the results from all media may result in a daily fine of R$ 20,000. In Goiás, the court blocked the paid promotion of negative advertisements directed against Governor Daniel Vilela. In Paraíba, Efraim Filho was fined R$ 37,000 for using paid boosts to disseminate criticisms of Lucas Ribeiro. In Paraná, Sandro Alex was punished for irregular television propaganda. In Acre, legal developments include the conviction of a state deputy and a vice-mayor in Cruzeiro do Sul for vote-buying. Additionally, the Electoral Court of Acre rejected a request by gubernatorial candidate Alan Rick to restrict the use of branded apparel by supporters of Mailza Assis and Jéssica Sales, ruling that the use of standardized items by voters does not inherently prove illegal distribution by a campaign.
