President Donald Trump this week pointed to the Brazilian presidential election to highlight the quick pace of ballot counting in other countries, while some American cities take weeks to report their results.

"125 Million People  voted today in the first round of Brazil’s Presidential Election. The results came out shortly after the vote closed, on the SAME DAY! In Detroit, Philadelphia, California, and numerous other U.S. Cities and States, the results, with much smaller numbers, will often take weeks to Rig, I mean, calculate," he posted on Truth Social. "Voting in America is CORRUPT!!!"

Brazil held the first round of its presidential election this weekend, with conservative Flavio Bolsonaro and incumbent President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva advancing to a runoff contest.

Bolsonaro is the son of former President Jair Bolsonaro, who is currently serving a prison sentence over riots in the capital that followed his election loss to Lula da Silva.
