Today is election day in Brasil and I visited two different voting centers in Sao Paulo, each in elementary schools, outside of both the sidewalks were littered with paper cards advertising the faces, slogans, and corresponding voting numbers for the candidates. Each candidate has a unique number. Voters are instructed to insert one number in each screen of the computerized voting terminal, to select one candidate for each of the administrative positions requiring a vote, one of which is for the President of the country. Voting is mandatory for Brasilian citizens, otherwise more than half the people wouldn't show-up.
