Not Lula, not Flavio Bolsonaro: the most searched presidential candidate on Wikipedia is...

oglobo14 September 2026 at 10:00

Wikipedia, the well-known online encyclopedia, conducted a survey, at the request of a column, on the volume of views of the biographies of the main candidates for President of the Republic. The most accessed candidate since January 1 was not Lula nor Flavio Bolsonaro, but rather Renan Santos, who registered more than 1 million accesses until September 6.

Renan Santos is described as a "histrionic" candidate from Missão, whose political origins are linked to the MBL and movements born on social networks. He is one of the main names analyzed in the survey.

The article was produced exclusively and was aimed at subscribers, who needed to register to have full access to the content about the survey.

Why this matters

Brazilian readers can identify which little-known candidate has been gaining massive digital attention, revealing a viral phenomenon or change in the dynamics of the presidential race. The information allows understanding which names are gaining traction outside of traditional polls, potentially anticipating surprises in the electoral scenario.
