Presidential Elections In Brazil
Direct presidential elections are held in Brazil as part of the general elections every four years (which has been regular since 1994), typically in October. The current electoral law provides for a two-round system in which a candidate must receive more than 50% of the vote to win in the first round; if no candidate passes the 50% threshold, a run-off is held between the top two candidates. Every candidate has a running mate who disputes the post of vice-president; prior to 1966, the vice-president was elected separately. The country has held presidential elections since 1891, spanning over a period of several different republican governments and national constitutions. This list shows the winner of the elections and the runner-up. Old Republic Presidentialism was introduced in Brazil after the Proclamation of the Republic in 1889, and the first election was held in 1891.
