Lula Widens First-Round Lead Over Bolsonaro in New Brazil Poll

Original: Brazil's Lula Widens First-Round Lead; Runoff With Bolsonaro Stays Tight, BTG/Nexus Poll Shows

A new BTG Pactual/Nexus poll shows former Brazilian president Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva extending his lead over incumbent Jair Bolsonaro in first-round presidential election projections, while a hypothetical second-round runoff between the two remains very close. The findings underline that Brazil's presidential race is still highly competitive, with neither candidate holding a decisive advantage should the vote go to a runoff.

Why now: Brazil's presidential election is approaching and the poll suggests the outcome could hinge on a narrow runoff
