The hope of getting reelected as the Brazilian President forrl Bolsonaro has been dashed as Brazil’s former leftist president, Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva sealed an astonishing political comeback, beating the far-right incumbent Jair Bolsonaro in one of the most significant and bruising elections in the country’s history.



With 99% of votes counted, Silva, a former factory worker who became Brazil’s first working-class president exactly 20 years ago, had secured 50.8% of the vote. Bolsonaro, a firebrand who was elected in 2018, received 49.1%.

Lula is leading Bolsonaro with over 2 million votes with less than 1 million votes to be officially counted.
