According to France 24, this is a key state, accounting for a fifth of the nation's vote.\n\nThe election is seen as a nail-biter, with Lula da Silva and Bolsonaro holding opposing views on various issues. Lula da Silva is running for a fourth and final term, and has emphasized the defence of Brazilian sovereignty as a main theme of his campaign, Euronews reported.\n\nLula da Silva and Bolsonaro held rallies in Sao Paulo on Saturday, ahead of Sunday's election, which has been marred by scandals and mudslinging, the National Post noted.",
