  • Chamber of Deputies 513 seats 路 4-year term 路 proportional representation by state and the Federal District
  • Federal Senate 81 seats 路 8-year term 路 majority voting; three senators per state and the Federal District, with one-third or two-thirds of seats renewed every four years

The President is both head of state and head of government and is directly elected with an absolute-majority requirement and a runoff if necessary; the President may be reelected once consecutively. Ministers are appointed by the President, while the TSE is the highest body of the Electoral Justice and works with Regional Electoral Courts that administer elections in the states and municipalities. Voting is compulsory for literate Brazilian citizens aged 18 to under 70, and optional for 16-17-year-olds, people over 70, and illiterate citizens.
