JAKARTA - Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro objected to the results of last month's presidential election, in which he lost to Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva, citing votes from several voting machines had to be "hit", in a complaint the election authorities responded to with early skepticism.

Bolsonaro's claim does not appear to be successful, as CLA's victory has been ratified by the High Election Court (TSE) and recognized by Brazil's leading politicians and international allies.

Still, it could trigger a small but committed protest movement that has so far refused to accept the outcome.

Alexandre de Moraes, the Supreme Court judge who currently leads the TSE, said in a ruling seen by Reuters, Bolsonaro's far-right electoral coalition, which filed a complaint, had to submit its full audit for both polling rounds last month within 24 hours, or he would reject it.

Gleisi Hoffmann, president of the Labor Party (PT) CLA, described Bolsonaro's election complaint as "dishonesty".

"There is no longer any delay, irresponsible, insulting institutions and democracy," he wrote on Twitter.

"The vote was decided in the vote and Brazil needed peace to build a better future," he said.

Meanwhile, Brazil's Social Democracy Party (PSDB), a traditional rival to PT, called Bolsonaro's complaint "absurd", tweeting that it would be opposed "by institutions, the international community and Brazilian society."

Earlier, the Bolsonaro Coalition said an audit of the second round of October 30 between Bolsonaro and Lula had found "tremendable signs of damage" in several electronic voting machines.

"There are signs of serious failure resulting in uncertainty and making it impossible to validate the resulting results" on the old model voting machine, Bolsonaro's allies said in their complaint. Departing from this, they urged that the vote of the model be "hit".

Bolsonaro, a former far-right army captain, has for years claimed the country's electronic voting system was vulnerable to fraud, without providing strong evidence.

It is known that Bolsonaro remained silent in public for nearly 48 hours after the election was held on October 30, still not admitting defeat, although he gave his government the authority to begin preparing for the presidential transition.

As one of Brazil's most active figures on social media and public events, Bolsonaro has almost disappeared from the public in the past three weeks, with little or no formal agenda or public statements almost every day.
