Lula and Bolsonaro make final appeals as Brazil votes in tight runoff
Brazilian presidential candidates Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva and Flávio Bolsonaro made final appeals to voters as they cast their ballots, with Bolsonaro holding a slight lead in polls for the decisive runoff election. Lula warned that Brazilians face a choice between someone who fights for the country and someone who only supports "the American flag," calling the Bolsonaros puppets of Donald Trump's US government. Flávio Bolsonaro, son of former president Jair Bolsonaro, said Brazil cannot endure another four years like the current ones, arguing Lula failed to deliver on promises to help the poor. The election marks a runoff between the left-wing incumbent Lula and the right-wing populist Bolsonaro, who has a narrow advantage in polling ahead of Sunday's vote.
