Flávio Bolsonaro does not recognize the outcome of the presidential election. He wants to contest it due to an extended voting time - although his camp had also called for an extension.
Flávio Bolsonaro, the defeated presidential candidate, is seeking to annul the runoff election in Brazil due to a two-hour extension of voting hours. The Supreme Electoral Court had declared Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva the winner of the runoff election. Lula won with 51.74% of the votes, while Flávio Bolsonaro's side received 48.26%. The voting hours extension was requested by Lula's campaign, citing transportation issues and its impact on voters.
