Expresidente chileno Boric da las gracias a Lula por "por sostener la esperanza del mundo"

Partial results from the second round of Brazil's presidential election show a tight contest between right-wing senator Flávio Bolsonaro and incumbent President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva. Early vote tallies released on October 25 show fluctuating leads as initial percentages of the ballot are processed.

Depending on the exact stage of the early count, varying preliminary figures place both candidates closely matched. Reports citing early counts ranging from roughly fourteen to twenty-five percent of urns indicate narrow margins, with Flávio Bolsonaro—the eldest son of former president Jair Bolsonaro—holding narrow leads around fifty percent in several partial updates, while other preliminary reports at the start of counting placed Lula da Silva ahead with higher percentages.
