Bolsonaro contested the presidential election in Brazil

The country’s leader, who lost the presidential race to Lula da Silva, counts some of the votes.

Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro has decided to challenge the results of an election he lost last month to Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva. It was reported on November 23 by Reuters.

In a complaint that was “received with skepticism” by electoral authorities, the incumbent head of state argues that some votes should be “recognized as invalid.”

It is noted that Bolsonaro’s actions are unlikely to succeed, as Lula da Silva’s victory was ratified by the Supreme Election Court and recognized by Brazil’s leading politicians and international allies.

“However, this could spur a small but determined protest movement that has so far refused to recognize the election results,” the agency insisted.

In a Supreme Court ruling seen by Reuters, Bolsonaro’s right-wing electoral coalition must submit a full audit of both rounds of voting last month within 24 hours. Otherwise, the complaint will be rejected.

The Brazilian Social Democrats Party, a traditional rival of Bolsonaro and his political forces, called the complaint “nonsensical”, saying it would be opposed by “institutions, the international community and Brazilian society”.

Supporters of the incumbent say that during the second round of the presidential election on October 30, “serious signs of malfunction” were found in some electronic voting machines.

The agency emphasized that Bolsonaro has remained silent in public for almost 48 hours after the announcement of the election results and has not yet admitted defeat, although he has allowed the government to begin preparations for the change in head of state

It will be remembered that the former President of Brazil, Lula da Silva, defeated the current leader of the country Bolsonaro in the election on October 30.

He ruled Brazil from 2003 to 2011, winning two presidential elections after three failed attempts in 1989, 1994 and 1998.
