Brazil's runoff election opens with polls tight as Bolsonaro and Lula face off

Polling stations are open in Brazil for a runoff election predicted to be extremely close. Flávio Bolsonaro, son of the jailed former president, cast his vote in Rio de Janeiro, claiming the country needs "real change" and cannot endure four more years of decline. Bolsonaro and challenger Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva hold opposing views on issues ranging from US relations to climate change and social welfare. In the first round on October 4, Lula received about 45 percent of the vote, while Bolsonaro received 47 percent. Since neither candidate surpassed 50 percent, today's second round will decide the winner.
