Parliamentarians, trade union leaders, writers, and social justice campaigners have signed a solidarity statement against US interference in Brazil’s presidential election. According to Brasil Wire, the statement also supports Brazilian social movements working for a more just and equal society ahead of the Sunday vote.

In the election runoff, Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva faces Senator Flávio Bolsonaro. MercoPress reports that Argentine President Javier Milei has publicly backed Bolsonaro and accused Lula of conducting a “dirty campaign,” stating he hopes Lula does not attempt to “steal” the election.

The Guardian reports that Bolsonaro's attempt to label his rival during a primetime television debate backfired after he attended the event with the word “corrupto” written on his palm.
