Bolsonaro’s party wants election votes to be invalid Devastation and overcrowded hospitals after earthquake in Indonesia – at least 162 dead

More than three weeks after right-wing President Jair Bolsonaro was voted out in Brazil, his party wants part of the votes cast to be declared invalid. The Liberal Party (PL) has filed a petition with the Supreme Electoral Court, party leader Valdemar da Costa said on Tuesday (local time). Bolsonaro’s party doubts whether all electronic ballot boxes work properly. Former President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva won the October 30 runoff by a slim margin.

So far, Bolsonaro has not explicitly acknowledged his defeat. Lula will take office on January 1, 2023. He got 50.9 percent of the vote in the second round, Bolsonaro got 49.1 percent. Even before the vote, Bolsonaro had repeatedly expressed doubts about the electoral system and indicated that he might not recognize the result. (bal/sda/dpa)
