Senate
In each state, there were two places in dispute. Then the voter deposited two votes, one for each seat. And in the state of Guanabara, there were two "normal" seats in dispute for an eight-year term, and an extra seat to complete the term of office of Senator Mario Martins, whose term was revoked by the Military Regime.
