$NMR A abstention remains one of the main concerns among candidates in the final stretch of the campaign. In the 2022 presidential elections, about 32 million voters did not vote in the first round, equivalent to 20.89% of the electorate. The figure represented the highest level of abstention since redemocratization, surpassed only by the historical record of 1998, when 21.5% of voters did not turn out at the polls. The numbers show a growing trend in the absence of voters in recent presidential contests.
