In addition to government evaluations, the performance regarding voting intentions for the government of Roraima was announced, where Arthur Henrique (PL) leads with 60% of preferences, while Soldado Sampaio follows with 27%. This data was revealed in a Quaest poll, which also has a margin of error of three percentage points.

The survey on voting intentions in the state of Roraima represents Quaest's first engagement with electoral data from the region.
