Technically tied with Costa is Mendonça Filho (PL), who has 16% and is also tied by margin of error with Túlio Gadelha (PSD) and Eduardo da Fonte (PP), who have 13% and 12% respectively. Paulo Rubem (Rede) closes the list with 4%.
Those who would vote blank or null amount to 4%, while those who are undecided, 6%.
