AFOS — Brazil 2026 Electoral Divergence Dataset

🌐 English · Português · Español

English

Open, auditable daily dataset that cross-references prediction markets (Polymarket) × polling institutes (TSE-registered) × press coverage for Brazil's 2026 presidential cycle, with explicit divergence between sources instead of smoothed averages.

Maintained by AFOS Analytics — open-source civic infrastructure for electoral political-risk intelligence. This is the public mirror of the same data the platform serves live, updated daily. Files are dated and append-only: each day adds new files, past dates are never overwritten, and every update is a git commit — so the full history is preserved natively.

🔒 No personal data (privacy / LGPD): contains only public electoral data (market odds, registered polls, news links). No subscriber data, no emails, no leads, no personal information of any kind. The export pipeline is database-free by construction and never accesses any user table. Brazil's LGPD and equivalent principles are respected in full.

License (dual): Data → CC BY 4.0 (LICENSE-CC-BY-4.0); code/scripts → Apache 2.0 (LICENSE-APACHE-2.0). Both require attribution to AFOS Analytics.

🗳️ Electoral polls (priority) · Pesquisas eleitorais · Encuestas

Path	Rows	Content
`polls/tse-registry.csv` · `.json`	350	Official TSE poll registry — full public fields, built directly from the TSE Open Data file. Every presidential poll filed for 2026 with its complete registration sheet: institute, CNPJ, sample, field dates, declared cost, named responsible statistician + CONRE, and the full (un-truncated) methodology and sampling/weighting design — including the demographic/geographic quota design (sex, age, education, income, region) with the declared quota percentages. Registration-design fields only — no per-candidate results, and the complete questionnaire is a PesqEle attachment, not in the open-data file. (`Lei 9.504/97 art. 33`)
`polls/national-poll-results-firstround.csv`	158	Published first-round results, long format: one row per candidate × scenario × poll. Carries the TSE registration number, institute, sample, margin, field dates.
`polls/national-poll-results-secondround.csv`	38	Published head-to-head runoff matchups (`candidate1 vs candidate2`, percentages).
`polls/national-polls.json`	22	Full structured national polls with results (first round + runoff + methodology), reconstructed from the platform history. Each poll carries a `tse_registration` block (full methodology, sampling/weighting design, statistician, CONRE, CNPJ, cost) and, since 2026-06-13, fieldwork-midpoint dating (`field_midpoint`, `days_to_first_round`/`runoff`) plus `tse_registration.sample_design` (parsed sample composition/weighting — layer A).
`polls/sample-demographics.csv`	119	Sample-design demographics (layer A), long format: each poll's declared sex/age/education/income quota composition parsed from the TSE sampling plan, with explicit per-poll coverage (`full_percentages` 12/22 · `mentioned_no_pct` 10/22). This is sample composition/weighting — not vote-by-demographic crosstabs (layer B), which are not part of TSE open data.
`polls/polls-data-{date}.json`	—	Daily snapshot of the national polls referenced on that date.

📈 Market & divergence time-series

Path	Content
`data/market-odds-timeseries.csv`	Polymarket presidential odds per candidate, daily (`date, candidate, party, polymarket_pct, volume_usd_m`) — full history from 2026-04-17.
`data/divergence-timeseries.csv`	Market × poll divergence per candidate (`poll_date, institute, register_tse, candidate, poll_pct, polymarket_pct, polymarket_date, divergence_pp`) — each national poll joined to the market odds on its date. The dataset's namesake signal.
`data/poll-divergence.csv`	Poll-level market × poll pairing anchored on each poll's fieldwork midpoint; `naive_gap_pp` is explicitly flagged `naive_winprob_minus_voteshare` — the market prices P(win) while the poll reports vote share, so the gap is not scale-reconciled (reconciling the scales is a modeling choice left to the researcher).
`data/divergence-{date}.csv`	Per-day market × poll divergence snapshot.

📰 Daily analysis & news

Path	Content
`snapshots/analysis-criteriosa/{date}.json`	Daily analysis: market × poll × press, per candidate (incl. `quadroComparativo`).
`snapshots/analysis-cards/{date}.json`	Thematic cards (sentiment, institutional, macro).
`news/news-{date}.json`	Public news links (source, title, URL, date) — no article bodies.

🎓 For researchers

Start with DATA_DICTIONARY.md (every column, type, unit, provenance) and polls/ (the registered-poll universe + published results).
Reproducibility: every value traces to a public primary source — the TSE registry, a named pollster's release, or a live Polymarket contract. Nothing is imputed or smoothed; where a number is missing it is left blank, not filled.
Editorial stance: AFOS reports divergence between sources rather than a single blended average — the spread is treated as signal, not noise.
Demographics: sample-design demographics — the declared composition/weighting of each poll's sample (layer A) — are included (polls/sample-demographics.csv). Vote-by-demographic crosstabs (layer B — e.g. vote share by sex/age/income) are not part of Brazil's TSE open data; institutes publish those separately, so they are intentionally absent here rather than partially scraped.
Scale caveat (market vs poll): Polymarket prices probability of winning; polls report vote share. The two divergence files keep both raw values side by side and flag the naive gap accordingly — they are not a like-for-like error metric.
Updates: dated and append-only; each daily commit preserves the full history natively (see CHANGELOG.md).
