Brazilians start voting in tight election between Lula and Flavio Bolsonaro

Brazilians began casting their ballots on Sunday in a tightly contested and closely watched presidential election. The vote features incumbent President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva, an 80-year-old seeking a fourth term, running against right-wing Senator Flavio Bolsonaro, who is the son of former president Jair Bolsonaro.

In addition to the presidential race, nearly 160 million eligible voters across the country are participating in the broader election to choose lawmakers, senators, and state governors.
