Thousands of Brazilians turned out in Dublin’s city centre earlier today to have their say in a Presidential Election taking place in their home country over 8,500 km away.
Long queues formed early on Sunday at Croke Park in Dublin, where the polls opened at 8am. There are around 12,000 Brazilians registered to vote living in Ireland.
Earlier this month, thousands of Brazilians from all over Ireland registered to vote remotely in a polling station set up in Erin School of English on North Great George’s Street in Dublin. Now with Electronic voting being used, results are expected around three hours after the closing of the polls.
