Listen to the story

Brazil will have elections in 2026.

There will be no exit poll this time.

An exit poll asks people how they voted. This happens right after they leave the polling station.

News websites usually use exit polls. They show early results before the final count.

This year, there will be no exit poll for the elections.

A news report explains why this will happen.

Many people want to know the reason.

Voters often watch exit polls on election day.

Exit polls give a quick idea of who is winning.

But they are not always correct.

The final result comes from the official count.

This count happens after all votes are collected.

People must wait for the real numbers.

The 2026 elections will work without this early information.

More details will come before the election day.
