Transparência das prestações de contas eleitorais nos municípios Amazonenses

Abstract

Mandatory accountability is established as a mechanism to promote transparency. In this sense, the objective was to analyze whether the electoral reports of candidates for mayor in 2020, in Amazonian municipalities, contribute to promoting transparency in campaign financing and compare financing with success in the electoral dispute. Through analysis of the content of legislation and description of the candidates' accountability, the result was obtained that although laws on transparency are in force, they need to be more severe so that they are not violated; and that those elected spend more, investing mostly in advertising, and tend to provide more robust accounts, while those with fewer votes present incomplete reports.
