Two years later, will be municipal elections, of mayor and vice mayor and city councils. Note that the distinguishing criterion is by federal level and not by powers the representatives from the executive and legislative are elected at the same time."

Parties must elect candidates by June 30, 2014.

The country's Democratic Labor Party voted to back President Dilma Rousseff's reelection bid, despite her changing her political party to the Workers' Party. The Workers' Party will announce Rousseff as its candidate during the party's primary convention in the capital on June 21.

The current Vice President, Michel Temer, is part of the Brazilian Democratic Movement Party, which had voted 59 to 41 to back Rousseff and Temer.

The Social Democratic Party and Socialist Party are expected to name Senator Aecio Neves and Eduardo Campos, respectively, as their presidential candidates.
