  1. Follow-up: Brazil votes in presidential runoff as Lula and Flávio Bolsonaro are virtually tied in polls

    After the first round on Oct 4, about 159 million Brazilian voters return to the polls on Sunday, Oct 25, to choose between incumbent President Lula and far-right senator Flávio Bolsonaro, eldest son of former president Jair Bolsonaro, who led the first round 47% to 45%. A CNT/MDA poll released on Saturday put Flávio at 46.3% and Lula at 45%, with a 2.2-point margin of error, while a Datafolha poll on Thursday had them at 50% each. Tens of thousands of Lula supporters rallied on Copacabana beach in Rio on the eve of the vote; since Brazil returned to democracy in the 1980s, no candidate trailing after the first round has won the runoff.
