World3 sources3 countries🔦 Under-reported3m ago
Brazil's presidential election is heading to a runoff on October 25 between incumbent President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva and Senator Flávio Bolsonaro, after neither candidate secured a majority in the first round. Partial returns and projections showed the conservative senator narrowly leading the current president in a tightly contested race.
As the campaigns prepare for the second round, attention has turned to the candidates who were eliminated and where their crucial voter base will shift. Meanwhile, the third-place finisher in the initial voting has already announced that they will not endorse either of the two remaining contenders.
