Brazilian Representative Candidates

posted in Characters, Humor, Politics, Videos by Rico Ferrari |

In Brazil, there’s an assigned time in national TV for representative candidates to show up their platforms. It’s mandatory and it shows up in all TV broadcasters at the same time. This is a video made with the most bizarre candidates to the past 2006 general balloting. Some of them got actually elected. For me, the best, most bizarre of the lot is Lara, 31031. By the way, this numbers assigned to the candidates are the numbers people use to vote for them on the electronic ballots.

    Crazy. How many of them got (re)elected?

    In this round, two got reelected: one of them was ex-president Fernando Collor, impeached back in the 90’s for corruption charges. And two were elected for his first time, the most bizarre of them Clodovil, 3611: an ex-TV anchor, who was unemployed and ask for his ex-viewers (mostly females) to vote for him, promising he would “not be a jerk on the Congress”. Very scaring, but the guy looks like a good representative, six months later, compared to the others.
