The technological revolution of the second half of the 20th century brought profound transformations to contemporary society, improving quality of life, expanding access to information and political participation. However, this technological progress has also brought challenges. Misinformation has become a serious problem on social media platforms. Examples such as the election of Trump in the US and Brexit in the UK have shown how disinformation can influence democratic processes. In Brazil, the Superior Electoral Court faces difficulties in dealing with misinformation, especially during election periods. As democratic institutions try to combat the spread of fake content, political polarization has intensified, with the strengthening of digital populism. In this context, this research explores the discursive dispute over the credibility of the Brazilian electoral system on Twitter. The hypothesis suggests a predominance of attacks on trust in the system, especially in relation to alleged electoral fraud. This occurs through the boosting of disinformation by Bolsonarism. In addition, TSE initiatives on social networks can become a battleground for engagement on both sides. This work examines the role of the Superior Electoral Court in facing disinformation and analyzes the main narratives in dispute during the 2022 elections. Using a mixed methodological approach, the research conducts a literature review on the platformization of politics and the emergence of the extreme right. It also examines the TSE's strategies against misinformation. Categorical content analysis is applied to tweets collected during the 2022 electoral cycle, seeking to identify the disputed narratives between supporters and critics of the electoral system.
