Brazil elections: Personality, rather than issues, sure to dominate...

The country's open list proportional representation system means that votes for anyone with a high profile can be used to get other candidates in for the same party Singers, rappers, TV stars, comedians, volleyball players, numerous Big Brother stars, an astronaut, and even a porn star... these are just some of the candidates in Brazil's national elections next weekend. They follow ex-footballer Romario, an outspoken critic of this year's World Cup, and the clown Tiririca, who both triumphed in the vote in 2010 and are standing again.
