But how much you want to bet that Philipe Calderone would be calling fraud.
I'm guessing that in any election, especially in 'lesser developed' nations, there is a certain amount of questionable activity. When the end result is so close, it makes it makes it a very real possibility that these activities may involve enough votes to change a result. Hence the whining. (and I say whining because both side probably engaged in similar games).
