Brazil will hold a second round of voting on 25 October to choose its president, the Superior Electoral Court announced on 5 October. The electoral authority also confirmed runoff contests for governor in six states and the Federal District.
The announcement means the first round did not complete the selection of the national executive. The remaining campaign and the second ballot will determine the outcome. This archive brief records the court's confirmed timetable, without projecting a winner or treating the later vote as an event that has already happened.
