Brazil 2026 runoff: Lula and Bolsonaro technically tied in latest polls
Valor Econômico·BR·1 day ago
In the final campaign broadcast before Brazil's election, candidates Flávio Bolsonaro and Lula reinforced their core platforms: Bolsonaro reiterated plans to designate criminal groups as narcoterrorist organizations and end re-election, while Lula emphasized labor reform, taxing the super-rich, and expanding social programs. The broadcasts signal entrenched positions with no policy convergence, suggesting a polarized electorate and potential market implications depending on the outcome.
