72 Hours
The online platform 72Horas.org (lit. 72 Hours) was created to identify and signal towards discrepancies in the transfers of electoral funds and in the access to the Special and Party Fund that offer funding for electoral campaigning. The site gathers and visualizes data obtained from the Supreme Electoral Court (port. TSE) in order to differentiate monetary transfers between both funds by candidate, by locality, State, and by ethnicity and gender, among other variables. In this way, it seeks to contribute to transparency and accountability in the use of funds for electoral campaigning and to strengthen plurality within party structures.
