Dated the day this page was built. The link always leads to this event, even after the stories are regrouped.
The younger Bolsonaro bested Lula by more than 2.2 million votes in this month’s first round, but neither won an outright majority, setting up Sunday’s runoff.
What happened
The outlets' own sentences, most widely reported first. Hover one for who reported it.
Bolsonaro, 45, aims to return his family name to power while his father serves time for attempting a coup to prevent the end of his 2019-2022 presidency.
A win for Bolsonaro would signify a pivot to the right by Latin America’s most populous country and its largest economy in a year when Trump allies have notched victories in Chile, Peru and Colombia.
