Lula defeats Bolsonaro in Brazil's presidential runoff

Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva won Brazil's presidential runoff on Sunday with nearly 52 percent of the vote, defeating opponent Flávio Bolsonaro in a surprising upset. Bolsonaro had won the first round with 47 percent, marking the first time since 1985 that a first-round leader lost the runoff. The election day was chaotic, with courts extending voting hours due to flooding and bus shortages. Lula, 80, now heads for a fourth presidential term. His victory breaks a Latin American trend of seven consecutive election wins by right-wing leaders, who were often backed by Donald Trump.
