On the streets of some of Brazil’s biggest cities on Sunday night, many of Mr. Bolsonaro’s supporters responded to the results with claims of fraud — and then a swift exit.

Yet, independent computer-security experts who have studied the system say that layers of security prevent fraud and errors. And there is pelo evidence of credible fraud in the voting machines since Brazil began using them in 1996.

Officials from several countries in the Americas, including the United States, expressed doubts about the announced results, raising the likelihood that a new term for Mr. Maduro would not be widely recognized abroad, either.
