Brazil Election Update: Notes From SãO Paulo And The Road Ahead

Brazil's presidential election is heating up, with left-wing candidate Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva leading in the polls.

However, the election is still too close to call, with right-wing incumbent Jair Bolsonaro narrowing the gap in recent polls.

The election will take place on October 2, with a potential runoff on October 30 if no candidate receives more than 50% of the vote.
