The system is criticized by the current president and leader of the Liberal Party (PL) Jair Bolsonaro. For months now the Public Ministry and the Superior Electoral Court (TSE)the regulator of the elections, are positioned against the far-right leader.
How electronic voting works in Brazil
It is a device that has a numeric keyboard, simple and similar to that of a telephone. Voters only need to dial the candidate’s number through a machine.
Once you dial your favorite numbers, the screen will show the data and the photo of the candidate. The person must reaffirm their vote by pressing a green button. The process aims to streamline the election process so that the results can be known just hours after the voting closes.
The formula of Lula Da Silva, leader of the Workers’ Party (PT) and maximum candidate to win the election, wears the number 13, while Bolsonaro can be voted with the 22.
The process does not last more than two minutes and the people who come to vote they will not be able to enter with their cell phonessomething that does not happen in Argentina.
In addition, some ballot boxes carry out a random double choice: electronic voting and ballot voting. The objective will be to compare the final results at the time of the count.
