Brazil´s presidential elections next month will be one of the biggest tests the country´s democracy has ever faced. Aside from choosing the country´s president, the members of the lower house of Congress and two-thirds of the Senate, as well as governors and state legislators, Brazilians will decide if the ballot remains stronger than the bullets.
