estimate

Only if a contestant appeals: Lei n.º 36/11, art. 6.º (the Constitutional Court rules on the regularity and validity of the elections in the last instance), art. 157.º (appeal within 72 h of notice of the CNE's decision), art. 159.º(2) (72 h for counter-arguments), art. 160.º (plenary decides 'definitivamente' within 72 h after that). About 9 days after the CNE's decision; from the latest final result (15 Sep) that is ~24 Sep, and the window closes at the end of 25 Sep WAT. Precedent 2022: the Court rejected the appeals against the 29 Aug result on 8 Sep 2022 (ECO and Observador, 8 Sep 2022), day 15; the President-elect was sworn in on 15 Sep 2022 (Observador, 8 Sep 2022), within the 15 days after the official publication of the final results set by Constitution art. 114.º(2). The floor (day 8) is an estimate.
