Brazil's e-voting does not allow voters to vote online from home on a personal computer (like in Switzerland). It has very different requirements.

This is not a problem.

The government _must_ come to every city to collect votes.

This trial is mostly for voters outside Switzerland. It would be prohibitive for each municipal government to go to every city that an expat from there now lives...
