Brazil voters head to the polls today for a critical runoff election to determine the nation’s next president. The contest is exceptionally tight, pitting incumbent President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva against Senator Flavio Bolsonaro. The senator, the son of former President Jair Bolsonaro, made a significant showing in the first round earlier this month, temporarily taking the lead. Throughout the campaign, the race has been overshadowed by allegations of corruption, widespread economic challenges, and claims of external interference, which Washington has consistently denied. France 24 correspondent Jan Onoszko provides updates from Rio de Janeiro.
