This Sunday (6), 155.9 million people, in 5,569 municipalities, must go to the polls to elect mayors and councilors. The Electoral Court advises citizens to confirm their voting location in advance to avoid unnecessary travel on election day.
If you still don’t know where you’re going to vote, follow the tips below and see how to check your polling station:
Node website from the TSE
Checking the polling place is simple: it can be done at website of the Superior Electoral Court. On the page Electoral Serviceclick on Where to Vote. To authenticate, simply provide the voter’s name, registration number or CPF. In all three cases, you must provide the date of birth and the mother’s name.
The pages of the 26 regional electoral courts (TREs) also have space to search for this information. Once the data is filled in, the page will inform the registration number, the electoral zone and the voting location.
E-Title
The e-Título application informs the voting location right on the home screen, below the voter’s name. Furthermore, through geolocation tools, the app guides the person to the polling station.
The application can be downloaded for free from virtual application stores to smartphones that operate the systems Android and iOS until Saturday, October 5th, one day before the election.
What to take
On election day, it is not mandatory to take the title, which can be replaced by the digital version, the e-Título.
The document must be in good standing. Anyone who has their electoral registration canceled or suspended will not have their title on the polling station list.
In the section, only the presentation of an official document with a photo will be required, including the e-Título, the identity card, the passport, the professional card recognized by law, the reservist certificate, the work card or the national license (CNH).
The Electoral Court explains that documents will be accepted even if their expiration date has expired, as long as it is possible to prove the voter’s identity.
