Pernambuco Senate race tight: Arraes, Costa lead polls for 2026

Recent Quaest and Datafolha polls show Marília Arraes (PDT) and Humberto Costa (PT) leading the race for Pernambuco's two Senate seats in the 2026 elections, with Mendonça Filho (PL) and Eduardo da Fonte (PP) also competitive. The outcome will shape the state's federal representation, but polls are early and voter preferences may shift.
