The president of the Supreme Electoral Court (TSE), Minister Edson Fachin, spoke this Thursday (23) at the opening of the plenary session of the TSE, which highlighted the 100 days until the presidential elections in Brazil. According to the minister, “the Electoral Justice is ready and fully prepared to carry out transparent, clean and safe elections, as it has done for 90 years”.
“I also ask permission to clarify something that may seem obvious: the Electoral Justice is not made only by its leaders. On the contrary: the integrity of the Brazilian elections is assured by an attentive and qualified technical staff”, reinforced the minister.
