Brazil heads to polls in runoff between leftist Lula and Bolsonaro Jr.
- On Sunday, Brazilians voted in a presidential runoff between incumbent President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva and Senator Flávio Bolsonaro, son of imprisoned former President Jair Bolsonaro.
- Bolsonaro bested Lula by more than 2.2 million votes in the first round earlier this month, amid deep political divisions across the country.
- Since the second round began, Lula's profiles received around 111 million interactions against Bolsonaro's 31 million on social media, while voting is mandatory for literate Brazilians aged 18 to 70.
- Polls opened at 8 a.m. today, though at least 75 public buses were prevented from leaving municipal garages during the vote.
- A Bolsonaro win would likely bring Brazil closer to Washington, while a Lula victory would leave Brazil and Mexico with left-of-center leaders, shaping U.S. influence across Latin America.
