This person's history at the polls, from the most recent candidacy to the oldest.

Federal Deputy, 2022: result updated by the TSE. In 2025 the Supreme Federal Court (STF) ruled that the rule for leftover seats set in 2024 (the last round open to all parties and candidates) also applies to the 2022 election (ADIs 7228, 7263 and 7325), and the TSE redid the Federal Deputy count in June 2025. The original count showed not elected; the most recent TSE data show elected (remainder seat). Source: TSE, open candidate data; STF, ADIs 7228, 7263 and 7325.

G é Eleição Geral: presidente, governador, senador e deputados. L é Eleição Local (municipal): prefeito e vereador. De 1933 a 1990 o TSE não publica cargo municipal, então esses anos são todos G.

A candidacy without votes is a registration that did not reach the ballot: according to the TSE data, a registration not approved, a withdrawal, or a running mate, who does not receive individual votes.

The race or color is the one the person declared to the TSE in the registration of each candidacy. The Court started collecting this information in 2014; that is why it does not appear in earlier candidacies.
