How Anti-Corruption Politics Destroyed Brazil

Brazil’s upcoming election pits President Lula da Silva, eighty, against Senator Flávio Bolsonaro, forty-five. If he wins, Lula will serve a record fourth (non-consecutive) term.

Still can't believe it. We said no one had ever turned round a first round deficit. But if anyone could, Lula could. But I didn't believe it. When nearly half a million came onto the streets yesterday, I thought *maybe*. But I still didn't let myself believe. Incredible.

A Brazilian presidential candidate hasn’t come back to win after losing the first round since 1989

If Lula does this it's the most remarkable turnaround from the greatest politician in contemporary Brazilian history. Astounding. And maybe the biggest protagonist was not Lula, but digital berzerker André Janones, who got SEVEN PERCENT of the electorate in one whatsapp group

Andres Janones probably singlehandedly flipped Minas Gerais (his home state) for Lula. Insane

He's done it. I can't believe it. Gigantic. And by a margin so much larger (nearly 4pp) than I ever thought possible.

In almost every state with counting advanced, Lula has doubled his percentage-point lead where he led in the first round. Where he was behind, he's significantly cut into his deficit (by like 5% points).

In São Paulo state, Flavio's 14pp lead from the first round has fallen to 11pp – with São Paulo city, which went to Lula first round, behind in the counting.

48% of count in and Lula has taken the lead for basically the first time. Central São Paulo has exploded in chanting and singing.
