They were scheduled for next Friday 30, but the traffic restrictions imposed for next weekend, caused by the Covid-19 pandemic, provided for this Wednesday, between 8 and 22 hours, the elections for Benfica’s governing bodies . ABOLA.pt follows the electoral act from the first moment.

11.31 hours: João Noronha Lopes already exercised his right to vote in Pavilion 2 of Estádio da Luz, then he spoke with journalists, showing his optimism and calling on the members to vote. “We are one day away from changing the fate of Benfica,” he said.

11.22 hours: At this time, 6,101 members have already voted, 1803 of which in Pavilion 2 of the Estádio da Luz.

– The winner of the elections may not be known tonight. This is because, if any list requests a vote recount, the polls will have to be opened and there are a total of 25 polling stations in various parts of the country. However, it was known that the professional soccer squad will exercise the right to vote in Seixal.

– João Noronha Lopes will be the first candidate to vote, as he was scheduled to be at the Estádio da Luz from 11.30 am. Luís Filipe Vieira is scheduled to vote at 4 in the afternoon, followed by Rui Gomes da Silva, who indicated 4:30 p.m.

10.02 hours: Two hours after the Electoral Assembly, 3,734 deputies exercised their right to vote (1,177 in Pavilion 2 of the Estádio da Luz Sports Complex). The queue to vote, by the way, already runs through the entire Estádio da Luz.

9.00 am: After the first hour of voting, 1,611 members have already exercised their right to vote.

– Benfica’s electoral act promises a strong support, despite the current pandemic state. It is curious that the voting record is broken, which dates back to 2012, when Luís Filipe Vieira beat Rui Rangel. See the most important surveys here.

8.05 hours: Virgílio Duque Vieira, president of the Benfica General Assembly Board, as a substitute, made, from inside Pavilhão 2 of Estádio da Luz, a call to vote through the club’s television channel. Read here.

8 hours: Everything is ready for the start of the voting in Pavilion 2 of Estádio da Luz, the main stage of this election day, where around 7.30 in the morning there were already members queuing to exercise their right to vote. However, it will be possible to vote almost throughout the country, from north to south, in 23 clubhouses and one branch.

Luís Filipe Vieira, president for almost 17 years – the one who has spent the longest period at the helm of the club – once again qualifies for the A list for what, he guaranteed, will be his last term, with rival João Noronha Lopes in the list B and Rui Gomes da Silva, in list D. List C, belonging to the movement led by Bruno Costa Carvalho left the scene yesterday.

Record all the presidents of history Benfica.
