Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva

In an electoral upset that defies opinion polls and changes the course of Latin America, Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva secured his reelection as president of Brazil for a historic fourth term.

However, his victory, instead of ending a highly polarized electoral cycle, opens a new front of political and legal confrontation, as his opponent, Flavio Bolsonaro, refuses to recognize the result and declares his determination to seek the annulment of the elections.

The veteran center-left leader prevailed in the second round that took place yesterday, collecting 51.79% of the vote, compared to 48.21% for the conservative senator, the son of former President Jair Bolsonaro. 

According to the final results, Lula received 64.25 million votes, Bolsonaro received 59.82 million, with a margin exceeding 4.43 million.

His victory takes on particular political significance, as Flavio Bolsonaro had finished first in the first round, giving the impression that Brazil was one step closer to a right-wing return to power.

Ultimately, Latin America's largest country did not follow the political course chosen by Argentina, Chile and Colombia , where right-wing candidates had secured the strong support of US President Donald Trump. On the contrary, Brazil remains one of the few major progressive strongholds in the region.

In his first statement after the results were announced, from São Paulo, Lula attributed the victory to the mobilization of citizens and their determination to defend democratic institutions.

As he emphasized, Brazilians went to the polls because they were convinced that their participation was essential for ensuring democracy.

The result also represents a new political blow for former President Jair Bolsonaro, who ruled from 2019 to 2022 and is serving a 27-year house arrest sentence for the coup attempt aimed at overthrowing Lula after his defeat in the previous presidential election.
