Isn't it scarier that the election went to second round? I mean if Bolso played "it's a fraud" card when he lost, it will be more effective...

More effective how? :p 

If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated! Full story and how to help can be found here!

Well from my own experience in Indonesian elections :p

 

It's about "us" or "them", so if the margin in the second round is thin then fraud allegation will be more believable and with some incitement you can start a big demonstration. If you're defeated in the first round, less people will take you seriously. Of course Brazil and Indonesia is different.. Just sharing my thoughts

The margin isn't really thin though, more than 5% :p 

 

Somehow I highly doubt a figure like Bolsonaro, who like Trump splits a country in half so much, will get many people from the 'other side' to come over to his side. I think Lula's chance greatly increased compared to 24 hours ago :d
