Omar Aziz (PSD) advanced from the first round on October 4 with 40.63% of valid votes, ahead of Professora Maria do Carmo (PL) at 24.49%, setting up their October 25 runoff for the Amazonas governorship. Aziz secured victories in 53 of 62 municipalities, drawing strength from interior voters, while Do Carmo led in Manaus. Recent second-round surveys, including PoderData (56%-44%) and Quaest (51%-37%), show Aziz maintaining double-digit leads among decided voters. His prior service as governor and senator, plus coalition backing, contrast with Do Carmo's first-time candidacy and PL alignment. Minor first-round contenders such as Roberto Cidade and David Almeida received under 22% and 11% respectively and did not advance.
