Was the election stolen?

Was the election stolen?
I have a lot of family still in Brazil. The general consensus is yes, but that the corruption is so rampant that there's nothing that can be done. Sadly, Brazil has a long history of corruption that many felt Bolsonaro was the first steps towards digging themselves out. There's a lot of reports of voting districts (particularly those with a very heavy organized crime presence) where there were supposedly no votes for Bolsonaro (as in literally 0 votes), but also were there not only more votes cast for Lula than registered voters, there were more votes cast for Lula than living PEOPLE in those districts.

So what. In the Philadelphia area there was a block of 59 precincts that voted for Obama over Romney by a margin of 19,305 to 0. The election was every bit as honest and above board as the one that put Biden in the Oval Office.

Here's Schiff for Brains with it's Trump's fault.
Rioters attack government buildings in Brazil, supporting a strongman’s bogus claims of election fraud.
The world will suffer the consequences of Trump’s terrible example for years to come.
Even as we struggle to emerge from the same dark shadow.
We stand with you, Brazil.

Dave Rubin interviewed a guy with intimate knowledge of Brazilian politics. Little long, but very eye-opening and frighteningly familiar.
