Followers by political position
Each party’s position comes from the group its MEPs sit in at the European Parliament, or from the national party a branch belongs to, not from our own reading of its politics.
Growing fastest
Change over the last 90 days, by percentage rather than headcount, so a small channel adding followers quickly is visible next to a large one.
- Partido dos Trabalhadores +3063.6% (+643,352 followers)
- Exército do Lula +2177.9% (+9,561,000 followers)
- Missão +159.1% (+15,908 followers)
Reading these numbers
A follower count measures messaging reach, not support. It says how many people opted in to receive that party’s broadcasts on WhatsApp, which depends as much on when the party started promoting its channel as on how popular it is. Anyone can follow a channel, from anywhere.
Every figure comes from the channel’s own public page and is dated. A party with no reading is listed as not ranked rather than shown as zero. More on the method.
