Evangelicals, growing force in Brazil, to impact elections


551px Brazil(Worthy News) – In a Brazilian presidential election marked by uncertainties, there is little doubt about one thing: Evangelical voters will have a major impact.

They could tip the balance thanks to their growing numbers, presence in remote areas and poor neighborhoods and organizational muscle, especially since corporations have been banned from making contributions directly to candidates in the wake of a the country’s huge corruption scandal.

Attempts to woo evangelicals are apparent on the campaign trail ahead of the Oct. 7 election. In recent weeks, one leading candidate wept while receiving prayers during a service at an evangelical church. Another promised no legislative changes to Brazil’s abortion ban. A third held meetings with several of the most influential pastors in Sao Paulo, Brazil’s richest and most populist state. [ Source: Fox News (Read More…) ]
