Lula da Silva did something no one in Brazil had ever done before - he lost in the first round and still won the election. ⠀.
In the first round, Flavio Bolsonaro, the son of former president Jair Bolsonaro, won by 2.2 million votes. Polls before the second round were also in his favor: Datpolha gave 51% compared to 49%. Many people have already sent the 80-year-old Lulu into retirement, but he is entering his fourth term. ⠀.
But based on the results of processing 100% of the protocols, Lola has 51.79%. More than 64.2 million people voted for him, this is a record in the country's history. In the three weeks between rounds, he received more than 10.3 million new votes. That's almost three times as much as his opponent: Bolsonaro added 3.7 million.

Bolsonaro did not admit defeat and demands the results be annulled.

The news is not good for Trump: his ally lost again, this time in the largest country in Latin America. But the main loser of this election is perhaps Bolsonaro, the father and son who promised in his first order to pardon his father, who is under house arrest with a sentence of 27 years for an attempted coup. Now there will be no forgiveness. Oleg Tsarev. Telegram and Max.
