Brazil's Electoral Court launches National Week of Electronic Voting System

The Tribunal Superior Eleitoral (TSE) opened the first edition of the National Week of the Electronic Voting System, running from 3 to 9 August 2026. The programme features a live nationwide broadcast on 3 August at 17:30, during which a technical team dismantles an electronic ballot box and explains its internal components, security layers, digital signatures and cryptographic safeguards. The week includes demonstrations, lectures, exhibitions and a public campaign called “Fato ou Boato – Viralizou” aimed at combating misinformation about the voting system. The TSE also released a guide on the responsible use of artificial intelligence in the 2026 election campaigns. Over 563 000 electronic voting machines are slated for use in the upcoming October elections, with the court emphasizing transparency and public confidence in the process.

These activities occur as the country prepares for the 2026 general elections, where more than 158 million voters will cast ballots for president, governors, senators and legislators.
