#Brazil: A study by Justiça Global and Terra de Direitos identified 134 incidents of political violence during the 50-day 2026 election campaign. The country recorded an incident of political violence every nine hours during the first round.
Women, Black people, and transgender people are among the groups most affected, while the lack of accountability for perpetrators keeps violence a constant threat to political participation and democracy. Left-wing parties are among the main targets.
Women account for nearly 60% of the candidates targeted. Violence against women is marked by misogyny, racism, and transphobia.
