Brazil’s Presidential Election Heads to a Runoff


 Brazil’s presidential election is heading to a runoff between current Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva and far-right candidate, Senator Flávio Bolsonaro. Millions of Brazilians took to the polls Sunday, with Bolsonaro receiving 47% of the vote. Lula trailed behind with 45%. The two will face off again on October 25. Flávio Bolsonaro, a Trump ally, is the son of former right-wing President Jair Bolsonaro, who is currently serving a 27-year sentence under house arrest after being convicted of plotting a military coup following his 2022 election loss to Lula. This is one of Lula’s supporters.

Renata Manzzo: “There is a great deal of apprehension. I suppose I didn’t expect this. I had high hopes that the election would be decided in the first round in Lula’s favor, so it’s very hard to see us heading into a runoff trailing someone who is beholden to the United States, someone who, in our view, has bad plans for Brazil. It’s too much hopelessness.”

After headlines, we’ll go to Rio de Janeiro for the latest.
