Notes
  1. As in Brazil the government is formed by a coalition, it is hard for a party to reach the majority of 257 deputies and/or 41 senators. Therefore, the majority party is the one with more members in each house.
  2. In 2018, Miranda was elected a substitute for congressman Jean Wyllys, also a member of PSOL. Since Wyllys announced in January 2019 that he left the country due to death threats, Miranda took Wyllys' place in the Chamber of Deputies.[16]
  3. The successor is always the first substitute available of the party's coalition in the state. He may or may not be from the same party of the first holder.
  4. The successor is always the first substitute available of the party's coalition in the state. He may or may not be from the same party of the first holder.
  5. Carlos Fávaro placed 3rd in the 2018 Senate election, but will serve as Senator until the next special election.
