Brazil: Lula or Bolsonaro? Just before the runoff election, the race is suddenly open
Lula is catching up in the polls. Flávio Bolsonaro is only just ahead in voter preferences. On Sunday, those who have not yet decided will decide on Brazil's future president.
In Brazil, the gap between challenger Flávio Bolsonaro and incumbent President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva has narrowed ahead of the runoff election. According to polls, Bolsonaro has 47% support, while Lula has 45%. Lula, who is seeking a fourth term, has gained ground, particularly among young people, and his campaign says the election is now "completely open". The outcome will depend on the 7% of voters who have not yet made up their minds.
