The president of the Liberal Party seeks help from the Supreme Court to try to shield himself.
247 - After publicly stating that the report commissioned by the PL on the security of electronic ballot boxes pointed out flaws in 250 and that he would request a review of the counting of these ballot boxes, Valdemar Costa Neto sought out ministers of the Supreme Court and the TSE behind the scenes this Monday (21) to say that he believes in the soundness of the electoral system and that he is only taking such an initiative because Jair Bolsonaro demands it, journalists report.

According to what the PL president told these judges on Monday, in conversations aimed at creating a kind of private shield against reprisals from the two courts, he is under strong pressure from Bolsonaro.
Twenty-three days after being defeated at the polls by a margin of 2,1 million votes, Bolsonaro has not given up on disrupting the transition, and is now placing his bets on the report commissioned by the PL from a consultancy called Instituto Voto Legal.
