In Brazil, Several polls had shown Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, a leftist former president, beating Jair Bolsonaro, the right-wing incumbent, by double digits. Lula remains the narrow favourite, not least because Mr Bolsonaro repels so many voters. He is a Trumpian populist, who lies as easily as he breathes and imagines conspiracies everywhere. He makes no effort to stop the destruction of the Amazon rainforest. His handling of covid-19 was disgraceful.The actual vote on October 2nd he won only 48.4% to Mr Bolsonaro’s 43.2%. How will Lula’s win affect the Brics organization ?
