Brasília, 8 (Agência Brasil - ABr) - Brazilian voters do not have to wait until October 6 to get the feel of the country's electronic voting system. By accessing www.tse.gov.br (the site of the Electoral Court), he can simulate his vote, or rather, his six votes, because this year's election will be for president, two senators, governor, state deputy and federal deputy.

Because voting is mandatory in Brazil, the system will permit not voting for anyone (a blank vote), or annulling a vote. (AB)
