Bolsonaro's campaign wants to use the document titled "Results of the Compliance Audit of the Bill at the TSE" as a kind of plan B to question the security of the electronic voting machines.

For Boulos, the initiative is a clear coup attempt. "Bolsonaro's party is already preparing a coup-mongering document against the election results. They know they're going to lose and they want chaos. We need to settle the score in the first round against the militias that have hijacked the country!", wrote Boulos.

"It's an open and bright room," says Moraes about the location where votes are tallied at the TSE (Superior Electoral Court).

BRASILIA (Reuters) - The president of the Superior Electoral Court (TSE), Alexandre de Moraes, stated this Wednesday that the court's vote counting room is open and transparent, in a veiled criticism of the president and candidate for re-election, Jair Bolsonaro (PL), who frequently makes the false claim that the votes are tallied in a supposed "secret room".

"It's an open and clear one, it's neither dark nor gloomy," he said briefly to reporters during the opening ceremony for local secretaries ahead of the first round of general elections, scheduled for next Sunday.

The visit to the vote counting room was accompanied by the Minister of Defense, Paulo Sérgio Nogueira de Oliveira, by Valdemar Costa Neto, president of the PL, or Bolsonaro's party, and by a number of representatives from political parties and national and international observers.

Mora faced resistance in the final campaign of all the presidential candidates for the local area, but none of them were chosen in the final stretch.

In his speech, the TSE representative emphasized that there is no human involvement in the vote count and that the counting is "transparent, auditable, and monitored," in contrast to Bolsonaro's claim that the electoral process is not auditable.

He has trailed in the polls since then, with suspicions—without recent evidence—that the current system of electronic voting is susceptible to fraud. He even hinted that he would not accept the election results if defeated.
