Brazilian runoff election results: when to expect the winner

g1.globo.com (Portuguese) —

Brazilian voters go to the polls Sunday to choose the next president in a runoff between Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva and Flávio Bolsonaro, with vote counting beginning at 5 p.m. Brasília time. The Superior Electoral Tribunal (TSE) starts releasing results after polls close at 5 p.m., though no exact time is set for declaring a winner, as it depends on vote tabulation speed and the margin between candidates. Voters in five states and the Federal District will also elect governors. Results can be followed live on g1, and a winner may be announced before 100% of votes are counted if the difference becomes mathematically irreversible.
