Brazilians go to the polls in October to choose their next deputies, senators, governors and presidents, but the electoral calendar has already been defined. Read more about the 2022 elections. The election was approved by the Superior Electoral Court (TSE) in December 2021. The calendar for the 2022 elections foresees the first round of elections on October 2nd and a possible second round on October 30th. The results should be released on the same days.
Another new feature this year is that voting times are uniform across the country, with no differences based on time zones. The year has already started ws data with some calendar rules: from January 1st, opinion polls must be registered in the TSE system. Furthermore, the distribution of goods and benefits by the public administration is already limited; the conduct of social actions by entities nominally associated with the candidates; and public spending on advertising. This year's election campaign will see some of the new election rules defined by legislation passed by Congress in 2021.
One of them predicts that this will happen between 2022 and 2030 for the distribution of money from the party fund and the electoral fund, doubling the votes for female candidates or black candidates for the Chamber of Deputies. For the 2022 elections, the total amount allocated to the 2022 budget proposal approved by Congress is R$4.9 billion for the electoral fund and R$1.1 billion for the party fund. Another change for this year is the inauguration of party groups.
They were created after the extinction of party coalitions in proportional elections (deputies and councilors), but they also apply to majority elections (president, governors, senators and mayors). Federations seek to further consolidate the union of two or more parties: they must remain together for at least 4 years and have national representation. The rules that apply to them are very similar to the obligations that the parties have, such as B. A common statute and a national directive. Politicians affiliated with federations also fall under party loyalty rules.
