Brazilians will vote for their next president on Sunday after neither the incumbent left-wing candidate, Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva, nor his right-wing opponent, Flavio Bolsonaro, garnered a majority of the votes in the election’s first round earlier this month.
Bolsonaro, who has the support of President Donald Trump, is the slight favorite heading into Sunday’s runoff, with him leading by roughly one percentage point in the most recent polls released on Saturday, according to Reuters. The two candidates finalized the arguments of their campaigns on Saturday, as Lula marched along Rio de Janeiro’s Copacabana beach, while Bolsonaro campaigned in a key battleground state.
