Votes cast only for the party number (party-label votes) added up to 113,904, 2.9% of valid votes. The slates with the most party-label votes were MDB (25,594), Federação PCDOB / PT / PV (17,243) and PDT (14,107).

Compared with the seats the same parties won in 2022 in Maranhão, the biggest gain was MDB, from 1 to 5, and the biggest loss was PODE, from 2 to 0.

2 candidacies had their votes counted outside the valid votes, because the registration was denied or is still under review by the electoral courts (sub judice). They are: Dayana Roberta (PT, 808 votes, sub judice) and Margarida (PL, 211 votes, rejected). They stay in the result, with the status the TSE published; for those still under review, the count may change with the final ruling.

All the candidates, with the votes in each city: federal deputy 2026 in Maranhão.

How to read

Elected is whoever the TSE declared elected: Radar do Voto does not redo the seat calculation. Each office appears on this page as soon as the TSE declares the winners for that office in Maranhão, and the numbers come in with the TSE final count. Candidacies whose registration is still under review (sub judice) are marked and are never removed from the list. Certification and rulings by the electoral courts can still change the result.

Radar do Voto gathers and organizes public data from Brazil's Superior Electoral Court (TSE) and is not a primary source. If there is any discrepancy, the TSE data prevails.
