Brazilian voters are set to choose between Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva and Flávio Bolsonaro in an election that places the current president against the son of the country’s jailed former leader.
Lula, 80, is seeking a fourth term in office. His challenger, Flávio Bolsonaro, is presenting a strong challenge as he seeks to build support among voters.
The contest brings together Lula and a member of the Bolsonaro family, whose former president is currently jailed. The supplied information does not give further details about the election timetable, campaign positions or the reasons for the former president’s imprisonment.
The result will determine whether Lula continues in office or whether voters turn to Flávio Bolsonaro. Further developments will depend on the campaign and the outcome of the vote.
