Government supporters rally in Brazil to call for changes in the country’s electronic voting system

This translation has been automatically generated and has not been verified for accuracy.Government supporters rallied in several Brazilian cities on Sunday to call for changes in the country’s electronic voting system, which far-right President Jair Bolsonaro says is not trustworthy.

In a video projected to demonstrators in Brasilia, Bolsonaro repeated a warning that elections will not be held next year “if they are not clean and democratic.”“People who say electronic voting is safe and subject to audits are liars,” he said. Brazil’s top electoral court and members of its Supreme Court say there has not been fraud in the electronic voting system, which they say is efficient and can be audited.

With his popularity falling after overseeing the world’s second deadliest coronavirus outbreak, opinion polls show he trails former leftist President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva, though neither of them has officially announced they will run.
