after a polarising campaign, polls show the incumbent presidentjair bolsonaro is trailing far behind there is great uncertainty in brazil heading into the first round of the presidential election, and here's why. the incumbent, presidentjair bolsonaro, who is behind in the polls to his opponent, former president lula de silva is casting doubt on the integrity of brazil's voting system. brazil has electronic voting machines. the results come through nationally within two hours of the polls closing. but president bolsonaro and his party have suggested, without any evidence, that somehow government officials could alter the results. this is all leading to speculation that perhaps president bolsonaro will not accept the results, should it go against him. this then opens up a world of uncertainty. if he doesn't accept the result, what will that mean in brazil? memories are still fresh of the fact that brazil was a military dictatorship until the late 1980s. it is a possible president bolsonaro could somehow call on the military to make sure he stays in power? military officials are so wor

the two front—runners are presidentjair bolsonaro and the former left—wing leader, luiz inacio lula dae the 80s, why is that? it is also because president bolsonaro, the incumbent, who is trailing in the polls, that is one today had him on 35% and his main opponent on 48%. president bolsonaro has been casting doubt on the integrity of the voting system. here in brazil, everybody votes electronically, it is seen as an efficient and reliable system, the results come in within two hours of pulse closing but president bolsonaro because mac party suggested that government workers and election officials could somehow manipulate the result of these machines. so that is widely being seen here in brazil as a prelude to president bolsonaro refusing to accept the result of the first round of elections tomorrow, whatever that result may be. and he's also seen as imitating the playbook of former us president donald trump who also cast doubt on integrity of the election, and summoned his supporters to come to the streets. so the present here in brazil, where the president has a close relationship wi
