Polling has closed in Brazil’s election, with Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva and Flávio Bolsonaro remaining closely matched in the contest.

The result will depend on whether either candidate secures more than 50% of the vote. If neither reaches that threshold, the election will proceed to a run-off on 25 October.

The supplied information does not include final vote totals or indicate whether a second round has been confirmed. The latest position is therefore that the two candidates remain neck and neck as counting and the determination of the result continue.
