Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva is set to become the next president of Brazil, after defeating his rightwing rival, incumbent Jair Bolsonaro, by a razor-thin margin.
The leftist former leader, widely known as “Lula,” won 50.90% of the votes, with over 99% of the votes counted in a fiercely contested run-off election on Sunday.
Bolsonaro, who mustered 49.10% votes, will be denied a second term.
Lula da Silva supporters thronged São Paulo Avenida Paulista on Sunday evening after polls closed. The mood was celebratory even before the results were called, with people setting off flares when he was declared winner by the country’s election authority.
Many had tears in their eyes, telling CNN that they were hopeful for the country, which has been struggling with high inflation, limited growth and rising poverty.

we watched it happen with our own eyes here in America. There’s no reason at all to trust these godless communists.
In Brazil, Bolsonaro is being blamed for the world wide screw up of the illegitimate Biden regime. The current power structures will soon be replaced everywhere. Soon the Euro-trash will collapse when they are no longer being propped up by US fiat money printing. The dominos will fall, the result of the GloboHomo cabal. Pain, punishment and bloodshed is coming.
The posts here are pathetic. “Must have been stolen”. Is that it? Every election our side loses from now on is stolen?
So says the poster who claimed Trump would never win a General Election. And, to bookmark it.
And, no, not every elecion ‘our side loses’....just the ones with obvious algorithms, using the same voting machines.
As noted, above, maybe you’re wrong (again).
Yep. The moron class has absolutely no other recourse. It’s the copium of the qtarded. Just as many NPCs as on the left, the only difference is the programming.
Just like Venezuela, Chile and Columbia.
One word:
Dominion.
Have we changed anything since the last stolen election?
Another rigged “election”...
looks like the machine won another one. a tragic day for Brazil.
You made him cry like a little girl.
When was Brazil a possession of the United States?
With that margin, yeah, I’m suspicious.
“Many had tears in their eyes, telling CNN that they were hopeful for the country, which has been struggling with high inflation, limited growth and rising poverty.”
Yep, when you have high inflation, limited growth, and rising poverty….elect a progressive leftist to fix things….
I smell Soros .....
Look at Brazil’s demographics to see why Leftists have success there. Brazil will never be know for anything but women pushing the envelope of the Hot-Crazy matrix.
Gisele Bunchen is from Brazil and look how she broke Brady in half in a few weeks.
I flew many trips to Brazil in the 1990’s....
The country was plagued by rampant inflation, two or three times what we are experiencing now.
I asked men, “how do you keep up with it?”
The answer was, “we don’t, even with monthly increases in pay we never catch up!”
We never took home any Brazilian money, the “Cruzero,” at the time because it would lose value in a week.
The exchange rate was $1.00 = 70,000 cruzero.
The government dropped the three zeros and the rate was $1.00 to 70. I a few months later the exchange rate was $1.00 to 2,100!
Inflation is a curse and those who cause it, ie, Joe Biden and cast, should be hanged!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Remember how the left-wing media predicted a Lula blowout about two months ago? All their polls showed it. There wasn’t even supposed to be a run off.
Brazilians are about to get it good and hard. No way China is going to pass this one up.
