(The defeated candidate with the best votation will be the First Vicepresident and, hence, he will assume the country presidency when a presidental impeachment passed in the Congress; the candidate with second best votation between the defeated ones will be Second Vicepresident and he'll assume the presidential office once the president and the first vicepresident are impeached; and so on)
