Brazil's runoff: Lula vs. Bolsonaro in tight race
Brazilians vote Sunday in a runoff election between leftist incumbent Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva and far-right challenger Flávio Bolsonaro, with the race too close to call after neither secured a majority earlier this month. Bolsonaro, 45, narrowly led the first round with 47% to Lula's 45%, and polls show a tight contest. Lula, 80, promises to expand social programs and share resource wealth, while Bolsonaro pledges hard-line security policies, including megaprisons and trying minors as adults. The younger Bolsonaro faces a corruption investigation, and his campaign has been shadowed by his father's coup conviction. A Bolsonaro win would add Brazil to a list of Latin American nations electing Trump-friendly governments, while Lula has warned against U.S. meddling in the vote.
