Election results start to emerge

Everything is very tense here as the election results begin to emerge. Tension in Paraíba is especially high because there was chaos in João Pessoa during the voting as many voting machines did not work. Thus many voters gave up waiting for the machines to be fixed and did not vote. This is especially serious as it is the main source of votes for the present governor. Many are openly accusing the opposition of sabotage and thus fraud. May the Lord help us. 

Up to this moment 54.1% of the ballot boxes have been counted and the opposition candidate leads with 47.8% of the votes as opposed to the present governor who has 45,51% of the votes. We watch and pray.

No partial results for president have been released as yet.
