No result in Rio de Janeiro: in all of Brazil

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.

The same office appears twice in the year a place voted on a different date from the rest of the country (because of a postponement, for example).

This is not a chamber. Each race here has a single winner; the bar adds up how many city halls each party won in RJ, which measures the party's strength in that election, not a caucus that meets together. Where there was a runoff, its result counts, and each place is counted only once. And this total does not reach the number of municipalities in the country either: the Distrito Federal and Fernando de Noronha do not elect a mayor, and some municipalities had their election annulled and voted only in a supplementary election, counted separately. The party at the election counts: anyone who switched parties after taking office does not change this number.
