Bolsonarista publishes rumor that has already been denied about the vote of poll workers for Lula and calls for inspection

Elected senator Gustavo Gayer (PL-GO) published on the "Tropa do Flávio" channel the already debunked rumor that poll workers were voting for President Lula (PT), on behalf of absent voters, after the polls closed at 5pm.

Therefore, he asks that Bolsonaro's supporters be poll inspectors next Sunday (25).

In the audio sent on the channel, Gayer states that he has received several complaints that this had occurred in the first round, mainly in the Northeast region, where Lula concentrates the most votes. He says he is trying to prevent this from happening in the second round.

"What is the only solution for us to prevent this from happening in the second round? We need to have ballot box inspectors", says the senator-elect.

This is not the first time that this fake news has appeared during an election period. The TSE (Superior Electoral Court) has already denied that this possibility exists and reinforces that voting can only be done in the booth after the voter presents biometrics to the poll workers.

Gayer states that Flávio Bolsonaro and the re-elected deputy Nikolas Ferreira (PL-MG) also recorded videos with the same speech and that it is necessary to mobilize Bolsonaro's supporters to be inspectors.

Gayer says he is giving Flávio's voters a mission and that he needs 2 million inspectors across the country.

His guidance is for supporters to register on a website, share the link with friends and stay at the polling station even after 5pm to follow the process of sealing the ballot boxes.

To the Panel, Gayer said that he received complaints, but admitted that he has no proof of the alleged fraud.

"These are complaints that we have received, there is no proof, that's why we ask for ballot box inspectors to prevent this from happening", he told the column.
