Big Brother Brasil 26 Reweights Paredão Voting, Giving Single-CPF Ballots 70% Share

Overview

• Presenter Tadeu Schmidt announced the update on Friday, setting a weighted average that gives Voto Único 70% and Voto da Torcida 30% of the result.
• The new weighting takes effect immediately for the first paredão, with results calculated by combining both formats according to their shares.
• The two methods remain in place: Voto Único counts one vote per CPF per paredão, and Voto da Torcida allows unlimited voting.
• Since BBB24, the formats had carried equal weight, a balance now replaced to elevate the impact of individually verified votes.
• Schmidt said fan mutirões still matter, though they will require greater effort to counter the stronger weight of single-CPF ballots.
