If anything, the faster counts are more likely to be rigged.
Brazil uses voting machines that can have their software tampered with or have 0-days exploited.
Unfortunately the issue of voting machines has become partisan domestically. The right (when they lose elections) claims they are rigged, and the left now unconditionally defends the machines, which shuts down any sensible debate on potential software vulnerabilities.
The current sitting president publicly claims that voting is rigged.
What did he mean by this?
Frogs in a pot and the Republican party has been slowly boiling the water for decades.
Its weird but the only rigged elections are ones that occur when he is president.
2016 - Obama is President and they’re fair. 2020 - Trump is President and they’re rigged. 2024 - Biden is Preaident and they’re fair. 2026 - Trump is President and they haven’t even happened yet but they’re rigged.
Except he insists they were all rigged against him, like everything in his life. In his mind, he should have won by a much larger margin
Projection. Planning to claim corruption only if he loses of course. Sore fat loser.
his Minions in Brazil were crying out loud last election claiming it’s rigged, but what they forget is that they won in 2018.
Bolsonaro Jr is corrupt and a Trump boot licker. If he wins, expect further boot licking, releasing everyone arrested for the coup attempt and further attempts.
They have won the election this time, and by a lot. It doesn’t even matter if Lula ends up, by some miracle, being elected president again, the current opposition will control both houses by a significant margin. Now very few people are claiming the elections were rigged, of course.
it’s only rigged when they lose, of course.
In India not all the states even vote on the same day
Yes, and counting happens on a separate day, which could be up to a month after the voting.
Also the public does not vote for the President. People vote for their MP and (some combination of, depending on state) an MLA, an MLC and/or ward / block / district councillors. The elected representatives elect the President.
To be precise, last election was held in 7 different cycles. Though counting almost always starts and ends on the same day. Which, If I’m not wrong, was also the case with USA barring one or two states. India does have 4x more votes to count but it also has 4x the manpower, so🤷♂️.
Edit: also yeah India doesn’t vote for president, that’s true, but what do I even expect from mr Islamic republic of Japan?
Yes. Now about the TRUMP-EPSTEIN FILES ™…
the dipshit doesn’t even know the name of the other country he’s been fucking with the elections in?
Shut the fuck up, Donnie!
Always telling on yourself
India is rigged wtf
I don’t think the elections themselves are rigged, but the current Chief Election Commissioner is adding / removing names in the voter list to help his friends.
That’s called rigging
In practice yes, but he does it legally. For example, he might say ‘in order for us to know you are an Indian citizen, you have to show us a birth certificate’. This sounds perfectly reasonable, but poor and less educated people are less likely to have a birth certificate, and also generally more likely to vote for opposition parties, so in practice it will preferentially exclude them. Now this is an extreme example and will get struck down by the courts, but there are all sorts of small ways in which he can make it slightly harder for certain sections of the population to vote.
this is supposed to be the schizo platform, have none of you looked into voting machine software?
this is a rhetorical question. you haven’t. you CAN’T, but we know it needs antivirus software, it cannot be audited by a person who understands computers on even a user level. it’s very suspicious, this is the one most important thing to have good source code for and you know it’s absolute shit
