Brazil was one of the first countries to adopt electronic voting in 1996, and held its (and the world’s) first fully electronic election in 2000. Votes are counted in a mere six hours.
The country also hopes to implement digital and facial recognition features over the next 10 years to enhance security.
Turnout: Voting is compulsory for Brazilians over 18 years old and under 70. Those who fail to justify their absence both within Brazil and abroad are fined.
