General elections are scheduled to take place in Brazil on October 4, 2026. If no candidate wins outright in the first round, the top two candidates proceed to a runoff. This market will resolve to "Yes" if the listed candidate advances to Brazil's presidential runoff election or otherwise wins outright in the first round. Otherwise, this market will resolve to "No". If the president is decided in the first round of the election but the listed candidate is not the winner or the result of this election isn't known definitively by June 30, 2027, 11:59 PM ET, the market will resolve to "No". This market will resolve based on the result of the election as indicated by a consensus of credible reporting. If there is ambiguity, this market will resolve based solely on the official results as reported by the Brazilian government, specifically the Superior Electoral Court (Tribunal Superior Eleitoral, TSE) (e.g., https://dadosabertos.tse.jus.br/).Recent polls from late April, including AtlasIntel and Nexus surveys, position incumbent President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva and Senator Flávio Bolsonaro as the clear top two in first-round voting intentions for Brazil's October 4 presidential election, with Lula at 41-47% and Flávio at 36-40% amid single-digit support for rivals like Ronaldo Caiado and Romeu Zema. São Paulo Governor Tarcísio de Freitas' early April withdrawal from the race has consolidated right-wing backing behind Flávio, fueling trader consensus on their advancement to a likely runoff under Brazil's two-round system. Runoff simulations show statistical ties, reflecting high voter rejection rates, indecision around 10-20%, and debates over economic stability and judicial influence. Party conventions and the official campaign launch remain key upcoming events that could shift dynamics.
