Marília Campos secured the second Senate seat for Minas Gerais in the October 4, 2026 election, receiving roughly 19.4% of valid votes behind Domingos Sávio of the PL. Official tallies with over 98% of ballots counted placed her ahead of Carlos Viana and other contenders, reflecting her established base as a four-time mayor of Contagem and support from PT-aligned voters in a contest for two seats. Pre-election surveys from institutes including Quaest and Datafolha had shown her in a tight multi-candidate field, often leading or tied within margins of error. With final certification pending only minor adjustments, trader consensus reflects the near-certain outcome absent any unforeseen recount or legal challenge.
