AFP/Tiririca, 45, the only costumed clown elected in October to Brasil's lower house of Congress with more than 1.3 million votes took a test Thursday to prove that he can read and write.
During his exam, Tiririca read aloud headlines and subheads of stories on the first two pages of a newspaper and wrote a brief dictation from the book entitled 'Justicia Electoral. Una retrospectiva' (Electoral justice: A retrospective).
