Before October[edit]

Decided to do something a little more complete. There are certainly many things to improve, so please feel free to do it. Also I think it's best to deal with the state-level things (news, polss, etc.) on a separate article for each state. I'll try to star one for São Paulo tomorrow. Also, this is probably the biggest change I did in an article, so please tell if there's something wrong. Kensuke 07:00, 19 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I updated the presidential candidates scenario, now I am wondering whether all that information about the pre-electoral period shouldn´t be downsized or removed altogether --Lomibz 14:35, 26 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

October[edit]

Why isn't this election mentioned on the Main Page as a hot news event? The recent Austrian election is there, and Brazil is a somewhat bigger country. Cranston Lamont 15:09, 2 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

There's no information about the congressional election results, and I can't find any news about these anywhere on the entire web - presumably the data isn't available yet? Thanks in advance to anyone who finds these details, from an anonymous election nerd --86.142.110.97 20:55, 2 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I believe it was featured since I remembered seeing it. Note that we usually only put up info after there are results. In the future, if there is an event you feel is needed, check out Wikipedia:In the news section on the Main Page. Note also things can be a little slow sometimes IMHO especially when the event doesn't involve the US or Western Europe (probably because most of our admins are from there) Nil Einne 07:19, 30 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

November[edit]

The elections are already over, yet many parts of the article are out-of-date. I did a few minor changes, but the sections on the state-level elections and for the Chamber of Deputies and Federal Senate still need some fixing. Any help would be appreciated. Dayana 15:51, 2 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
