Marcelo commanded 62.83 percent of the elimination vote
No quinto paredão do BBB 26, a voz coletiva do público digital já parecia ter chegado a um veredicto antes mesmo do encerramento oficial das votações. Marcelo, um dos três emparedados, acumulava rejeição expressiva em todas as plataformas monitoradas, enquanto Samira e Solange Couto permaneciam em posições distantes no mesmo recorte. Como tantas vezes na televisão de realidade, o ritual da eliminação revela menos sobre um indivíduo do que sobre o espelho que o público escolhe erguer diante de si mesmo.
- Com 62,83% da média proporcional de votos para eliminação, Marcelo não estava apenas na liderança — estava em território de consenso raro para um paredão com três participantes.
- No Twitter, sua rejeição ultrapassou 78%, sugerindo que os usuários mais ativos da plataforma haviam, em grande parte, convergido para uma única direção.
- Samira e Solange Couto, com 19,57% e 17,61% respectivamente, encontravam-se fora da zona crítica, mas a distância entre elas e Marcelo era o dado mais revelador da noite.
- O Votalhada, agregador que rastreou mais de 4,1 milhões de votos em múltiplas redes, oferecia um retrato robusto — mas não definitivo, pois a votação oficial do Gshow ainda poderia reescrever o desfecho.
Na noite de 17 de fevereiro, enquanto o quinto paredão do BBB 26 se aproximava do momento decisivo, os dados do Votalhada já desenhavam um cenário de pouca ambiguidade. Marcelo liderava a rejeição com 62,83% da média proporcional, calculada a partir de mais de quatro milhões de votos rastreados no Twitter, YouTube, Instagram e outras redes monitoradas. No Twitter, sua taxa de eliminação superava os 78% — uma margem que sugeria não apenas preferência, mas algo próximo de um consenso entre os usuários mais engajados.
As outras duas emparedadas, Samira e Solange Couto, ocupavam posições bem mais confortáveis. Samira registrava 19,57%, com alguma concentração de votos no YouTube, mas ainda distante do que os analistas chamam de zona crítica. Solange Couto, com 17,61%, era a menos votada entre os três, e os padrões observados apontavam para sua permanência na casa.
Ainda assim, toda previsão carregava uma ressalva essencial: os dados do Votalhada representavam o pulso das plataformas digitais, não o resultado oficial. A votação do Gshow, mais ampla e menos visível, tinha o poder de surpreender — como a televisão de realidade já demonstrou ser capaz de fazer. Mas, à medida que a janela de votação se fechava, a corrente parecia firme. A direção estava traçada.
The fifth eviction of BBB 26 was shaping up to be a foregone conclusion. As of late evening on February 17th, polling data from Votalhada—a site that aggregates voting patterns across social media platforms—painted a stark picture: Marcelo, one of three contestants facing elimination, was heading toward the door with overwhelming public rejection.
The numbers told the story with brutal clarity. Across more than four million votes tracked on Twitter, YouTube, Instagram, and other monitored networks, Marcelo commanded 62.83 percent of the elimination vote. That wasn't a lead. That was a rout. On Twitter alone, his rejection rate climbed above 78 percent, a margin so wide it suggested something close to consensus among the platform's most vocal users. YouTube and Instagram showed similarly lopsided patterns. The other two contestants in the elimination—Samira and Solange Couto—were nowhere near the same stratosphere of public disfavor.
Samira occupied second place with 19.57 percent of the proportional average. She had registered meaningful rejection numbers across the platforms being tracked, and YouTube in particular showed some concentration of votes against her. But the gap between her standing and Marcelo's was so vast that she remained, by the metrics available, safely outside what pollsters call the critical zone—the danger area where elimination becomes likely.
Solange Couto trailed further still, at 17.61 percent. Among the three emparedados, she was the least voted for elimination. If the patterns observed across social media held true when the official Gshow voting concluded, the house would lose Marcelo, not her.
But there was a caveat built into every prediction. The Votalhada data, comprehensive as it was, represented only a snapshot of sentiment across digital platforms where engaged viewers congregated and voiced their preferences. The actual elimination would be determined by Gshow's official public vote—a broader, less visible process that could theoretically diverge from what the social media aggregates suggested. Reality television had produced surprises before. The numbers could shift. The public could move.
Still, as the evening wore on and the official voting window approached, the trajectory seemed set. Marcelo's rejection was not marginal or contested. It was dominant across every network the pollsters monitored. Samira and Solange Couto were distant second and third. The consolidation was real. The rete decisiva—the decisive moment—was coming, but the direction of the current was already clear.

Why does a poll like this matter if the official vote hasn't happened yet?
Because it shows you what the audience is actually thinking in real time. Four million votes tracked across platforms—that's not a guess. That's the temperature of the room.
But couldn't the official vote be completely different?
Theoretically, yes. But when you see 62 percent rejection on one person and 19 and 17 on the others, you're looking at a pattern that's hard to reverse. The gap is too wide.
What does it say that Marcelo's rejection is so concentrated on Twitter specifically?
Twitter users tend to be the most engaged, the most vocal. They're the ones who care enough to show up and vote. If he's at 78 percent there, that's not noise—that's signal.
So Samira and Solange are safe?
By these numbers, yes. They're outside the critical zone. But the official vote is what counts. This is just what the platforms are telling us before the final word comes down.
Does this kind of polling usually predict the actual result?
Often enough that it matters. But reality TV has taught us not to be too certain. The surprise is always possible.
