This market includes any potential second round. If the result of this election isn't known by June 30, 2027, 11:59 PM ET, the market will resolve to "Other".
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/).Incumbent Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva leads the Brazil presidential election market as he seeks a fourth term, drawing support from his Workers’ Party base and modest first-round polling advantages amid economic pressures and approval ratings near 44-47 percent. Flávio Bolsonaro trails as the main right-wing option, consolidating much of the conservative vote following Jair Bolsonaro’s endorsement of his son despite the former president’s ineligibility. Fragmented candidacies from figures such as Romeu Zema, Ronaldo Caiado, and Renan Santos continue splitting opposition support, sustaining the current pricing structure. Recent leaks tying Flávio to a financial scandal have added uncertainty, while the October 2026 first-round vote and potential runoff dynamics remain the primary catalysts for shifts in trader consensus.
