How the runoff count works
Voting ends at 5 p.m. (BrasĂlia time) on Sunday, October 25. From then on, the Superior Electoral Court (TSE) begins releasing results, which are tallied precinct by precinct from the reports of the electronic voting machines.
In a runoff with two candidates, the winner is the one who gets the majority of valid votes. Valid votes are those cast for candidates: blank and null votes are not counted in the percentages.
