## North
### Acre

In Acre, incumbent Governor Gladson Cameli was reelected in the first round with 56.75% of the vote.

#### 2018 election

In 2018, Glason Cameli, a former senator for Acre and civil engineer affiliated with the Progressistas, was elected governor with 53.71% of the vote against Workers' Party candidate Marcus Alexandre and Social Liberal Party candidate Coronel Ulysses in the first round. Cameli, a supporter of President Jair Bolsonaro, broke the rule of the PT in Acre after 20 years.
He was elected along with his Vice-Governor Wherles Fernandes da Rocha, also known as Major Rocha, a member of the Brazilian Social Democracy Party. Rocha during his tenure switched to the Social Liberal Party, the Brazil Union, and then the Brazilian Democratic Movement, a party which opposed Cameli in the 2022 election.

#### Operation Ptolemy

Cameli's first term saw a corruption investigation called Operation Ptolemy in 2021, in which the Federal Police investigated criminal organizations in Acre. Though Cameli has not been specifically targeted, the police seized some of Cameli's possessions, banned his international travel, and seized his passport. The police are also investigating his father Eladio Cameli and his brother Gledson Cameli. Overall the Federal Police found that at least 268.6 million reals in public funds had been stolen by the criminal organizations in fraudulent public contracts, but have not implicated Cameli.
Given no charge in the investigation prohibited his candidacy by the Superior Electoral Court or by the Ficha Limpa, which bans politicians convicted by a court, impeached, or resigned to avoid impeachment of running for eight years, Cameli was able to run for reelection.

#### Candidates

The election saw all three incumbent senators for Acre run, either for governor or vice governor. The candidates were as follows:
* Gladson Cameli (PP), the incumbent governor, ran for reelection along with Maliza Gomes (PP) as vice governor. Gomes served as Cameli's alternate in the 2014 elections where he was elected senator and then as senator once Cameli was elected governor from 2019-2022. She was replaced by Bispo José (PL). Cameli's coalition "Advance to do more" was made up of the PP, PDT, Always Forward (PSDB, CID), PODE, SD, PATRI, PMN, DC, and PMB.
* Jorge Viana (PT), a forestry engineer, who served as Mayor of Rio Branco from 1993 to 1997, Governor of Acre from 1999 to 2007, and Senator for Acre from 2011 to 2019, ran along with Marcus Alexandre (PT) for vice governor, the previous challenger to Cameli. Viana's coalition was made up of the Brazil of Hope Federation (PT, PV, and PCdoB).
* Mara Rocha (MDB), a Federal Deputy and sister of Cameli's first vice governor Major Rocha, ran along with Fernando Alvares Zamora (PRTB), an agricultural producer for vice governor. Her coalition "Hope for a Better Acre Starts Now!" was composed of the MDB, PRTB, REP, and PL.
* Sérgio de Oliveira Cunha (PSD) also known as Petecão, a Senator for Acre first elected in 2010, who formerly served as President of the Legislative Assembly of Acre and as Federal Deputy, ran along with Tota Filho (PSD), an attorney from Cruzeiro do Sul. Petecão's coalition "With the Strength of the People" was composed of the PSD, AVANTE, PROS, and PTB.
* Márcio Bittar (UNIÃO), a former cattle rancher and senator first elected in 2018, who formerly served as a Federal Deputy, ran along with Dr. Georgia Micheletti (UNIÃO) for vice governor. Bittar's coalition was only made up of the Brazil Union, a party founded in 2021 as a union between the Democrats and Social Liberal Party, though Bittar was elected senator as a member of the MDB.
* Professor Nilson (PSOL), a college professor, ran along with Jane Rosas (PSOL), a business administrator. The coalition was made up of the PSOL REDE Federation of the Socialism and Liberty Party and the Sustainability Network.
* David Hall (AGIR), a high school teacher, ran along with Jorgiene Carneiro (AGIR). Their party Act or Agir in Portuguese ran an isolated ticket. The party was previously the Christian Labor Party and the National Reconstruction Party of the victorious Fernando Collor de Melo in 1989 elections.

Lima's Lt. Governor in 2018 was Carlos Almeida, a public defender affiliated with the right wing nationalist Brazilian Labor Renewal Party (PRTB). Almeida, having joined the Brazilian Labor Party (PTB), broke with Lima in 2020 over his handling of the COVID-19 pandemic in Amazonas, believing that Lima's enforcement of the Bolsonaro administration's Herd immunity policy was wrong. Almeida subsequently joined the Brazilian Social Democracy Party, which opposed Lima in the 2022 election.
Lima joined the Brazil Union (UNIÃO), a merger of the former Christian democratic Democrats (DEM) and conservative liberal Social Liberal Party (PSL), for the election.

### Paraíba

In Paraíba, incumbent governor João Azevêdo was elected in the second round against Federal Deputy Pedro Cunha Lima with 52.51% to Lima's 47.49%.

#### Context
##### 2018

In the 2018 gubernatorial election, Azevêdo was elected in the first round with 58.18% of all valid votes. He defeated Lucélio Cartaxo (PV), the twin brother of the mayor of the state capitol João Pessoa, Luciano Cartaxo, who received 23.41%, and Zé Maranhão (MDB), a former governor of the state, who received 17.44%.

##### Background

Azevêdo succeeded Ricardo Coutinho, also of the Brazilian Socialist Party. Azevêdo was elected with Lt. Governor Lígia Feliciano of the Democratic Labor Party, who also served as Coutinho's Lt. Governor for his second term.

##### Abusive Advertising

During the 2018 election, Lucélio Cartaxo accused Azevêdo, along with Feliciano and Coutinho, of abusive and excessive use of State institutional propaganda during the 2018 elections, which would have benefited them electorally. Each of them was ordered to pay a fine of R$5,320.50. The decision was appealed but only Feliciano avoided the fine.

##### Operation Cavalry

João Azevêdo is being investigated at the Superior Court of Justice for being suspected of continuing the crimes investigated by Operation Calvário, which were allegedly commanded by the former governor of the State, Ricardo Coutinho. For this case, Coutinho was arrested, but managed to get out of prison through an injunction . According to a statement from the former Secretary of State, Livânia Farias, bribes paid by the Brazilian Red Cross helped defray João Azevêdo's expenses from April 2018, a period in which he began running for state elections. The transfers would have extended until the month of July, totaling around R$480 thousand. Azevêdo stated that he never received resources from anyone for personal use and that his campaign was supported by party resources.
