Abstract (may include machine translation)
The network of Barabasi and Albert, a preferential growth model where a new node is linked to the old ones with a probability proportional to their connectivity, is applied to Brazilian election results. The application of the Sznajd rule, that only agreeing pairs of people can convince their neighbours, gives a vote distribution in good agreement with reality.
