<dc:description lang="en">Since the 1980s, the number of Pentecostal candidates elected to the Brazilian legislatures has grown remarkably. Literature has argued that the phenomenon is related to Pentecostal churches’ support for particular candidates. To date, however, this claim has been based only on ethnographies or studies relying on a few cases of elected candidates. Drawing from a new data set of Evangelical (Protestant) candidates for the Federal Chamber of Deputies and state legislative assemblies, I try to answer the following questions: Do Pentecostal candidates raise fewer campaign resources than other candidates? What is the effect of being a Pentecostal candidate on the vote in Brazilian legislative elections? Is the structure of the church relevant to this effect? Using OLS regression models, I show that being a Pentecostal has a negative, though not significant effect on campaign spending. Additionally, there is a positive statistical relationship between being a Pentecostal and receiving votes, and between having the support of more centralized churches and receiving votes. Qualitative evidence of six Pentecostal politicians who lost their churches’ support at some point between elections, attempted reelection, and performed considerably worse than before reinforces the importance of having the support of a Pentecostal church.</dc:description>
<dc:description lang="es">Desde a década de 1980, o número de candidatos pentecostais eleitos para os legislativos brasileiros têm crescido de maneira notável. Estudos anteriores argumentaram que o fenômeno está relacionado ao apoio das igrejas pentecostais a candidatos específicos. Até hoje, no entanto, essa afirmação tem sido baseada apenas em etnografias ou estudos baseados em poucos casos de candidatos eleitos. Com base em um novo banco de dados de candidatos evangélicos (protestantes) para a Câmara dos Deputados e Assembléias Legislativas, tento responder às seguintes perguntas: Candidatos pentecostais arrecadam menos recursos de campanha do que outros candidatos? Qual é o efeito de ser um candidato pentecostal sobre o voto nas eleições legislativas brasileiras? A estrutura da igreja é relevante para esse efeito? Usando modelos de regressão OLS, mostro que ser pentecostal tem um efeito negativo, embora não significativo, sobre os gastos de campanha. Além disso, há uma relação estatística positiva entre ser pentecostal e votos e entre o apoio de igrejas mais centralizadas e votos. Evidências qualitativas de seis políticos pentecostais que perderam o apoio de suas igrejas em algum momento entre as eleições, tentaram a reeleição e se saíram consideravelmente pior do que antes, reforçam a importância de contar com o apoio de uma igreja pentecostal.</dc:description>

<abstract>Since the 1980s, the number of Pentecostal candidates elected to the Brazilian legislatures has grown remarkably. Literature has argued that the phenomenon is related to Pentecostal churches’ support for particular candidates. To date, however, this claim has been based only on ethnographies or studies relying on a few cases of elected candidates. Drawing from a new data set of Evangelical (Protestant) candidates for the Federal Chamber of Deputies and state legislative assemblies, I try to answer the following questions: Do Pentecostal candidates raise fewer campaign resources than other candidates? What is the effect of being a Pentecostal candidate on the vote in Brazilian legislative elections? Is the structure of the church relevant to this effect? Using OLS regression models, I show that being a Pentecostal has a negative, though not significant effect on campaign spending. Additionally, there is a positive statistical relationship between being a Pentecostal and receiving votes, and between having the support of more centralized churches and receiving votes. Qualitative evidence of six Pentecostal politicians who lost their churches’ support at some point between elections, attempted reelection, and performed considerably worse than before reinforces the importance of having the support of a Pentecostal church.</abstract>

<dcterms:abstract lang="spa" type="ddb:contentISO639-2">Desde a década de 1980, o número de candidatos pentecostais eleitos para os legislativos brasileiros têm crescido de maneira notável. Estudos anteriores argumentaram que o fenômeno está relacionado ao apoio das igrejas pentecostais a candidatos específicos. Até hoje, no entanto, essa afirmação tem sido baseada apenas em etnografias ou estudos baseados em poucos casos de candidatos eleitos. Com base em um novo banco de dados de candidatos evangélicos (protestantes) para a Câmara dos Deputados e Assembléias Legislativas, tento responder às seguintes perguntas: Candidatos pentecostais arrecadam menos recursos de campanha do que outros candidatos? Qual é o efeito de ser um candidato pentecostal sobre o voto nas eleições legislativas brasileiras? A estrutura da igreja é relevante para esse efeito? Usando modelos de regressão OLS, mostro que ser pentecostal tem um efeito negativo, embora não significativo, sobre os gastos de campanha. Além disso, há uma relação estatística positiva entre ser pentecostal e votos e entre o apoio de igrejas mais centralizadas e votos. Evidências qualitativas de seis políticos pentecostais que perderam o apoio de suas igrejas em algum momento entre as eleições, tentaram a reeleição e se saíram consideravelmente pior do que antes, reforçam a importância de contar com o apoio de uma igreja pentecostal.</dcterms:abstract>
