Brazil may face "political instability" if Brazil's federal electoral court does not provide more transparency about the voting system ahead of the October election, President Jair Bolsonaro's son Flavio said on Wednesday.

Senator Flavio Bolsonaro, in an interview with TV channel SBT News, said it appeared that the election had already been "rigged" by the court, known as the TSE. He did not give evidence for his assertion, saying only that opinion polls that show his father behind leftist rival Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva do not reflect the support they see out on the campaign trail.
