Voter reports a queue of more than 6 hours to vote at a school in Barroquinha

The man, who asked not to be identified, reported that he arrived at the location around 9:30 am and only managed to vote shortly after 4 pm.

g1 contacted the Regional Electoral Court of Ceará (TRE-CE) to ask about the delay in voting in Barroquinha, but did not respond until the publication of this article.

According to voters, the school is one of the polling places with the highest number of voters in the municipality. He also highlighted that the space is small for the number of voters, which contributes to the formation of queues and delays in service.

According to the Superior Electoral Court (TSE), 2,388 voters are eligible to vote in the college. The municipality of Barroquinha has more than 14 thousand inhabitants.

The voter said that in one of the sections there was a beginning of confusion due to the disarray of the queue. Despite the situation, there was no more serious incident.

The delay would also be related to the difficulty faced by some voters, especially elderly people, in completing the vote. According to the report, many elderly people in the section have mobility difficulties and take longer to vote.
