Douglas Ruas wins Rio governor race in first round despite 49.27% vote share
InfoMoney·BR · IM·2 days ago
A PoderData poll of 1,200 Amazonas voters (Oct 8-11, margin ±2.8pp) shows Lula and Flávio each at 49% in the second round, indicating a statistical tie. The race remains highly competitive with no clear frontrunner, and the outcome could hinge on undecided or late-breaking voters.
With 13-14 days remaining until the Brazilian presidential runoff, Flávio Bolsonaro holds a numerical lead in the majority of recent polls (4-5 out of 5-6 surveys), while Lula da Silva leads in one (Vox Brasil). The race remains within the margin of error in most surveys, indicating a highly competitive and uncertain outcome. Lula is actively campaigning to mobilize working-class and youth voters.
