Brazil’s electoral system is free of fraud, a group of 18 active and former Supreme Court justices said on Monday, amid unrelenting attacks by President Jair Bolsonaro, who is pushing for changes to the voting process. Thousands of Bolsonaro’s supporters on Sunday rallied in several cities, including Rio de Janeiro and the capital Brasilia, to show support for the far-right leader’s demand that paper receipts be printed after electronic ballots are cast in next year’s presidential election. Bolsonaro has said without providing any evidence that fraud marred the 2018 contest that he eventually won in a second round of voting.
