How Brazil's two leading presidential candidates are talking about crime

Crime is at the top of voters' concerns in Brazil ahead of Sunday's national elections. Many are calling for tougher measures — part of a broader rightward shift across Latin America.

What the coverage shows

France 24 frames the story as a profile of Flavio Bolsonaro, emphasizing that he was little known a few months ago and is now polling neck and neck with Lula. NPR instead centers the election issue of crime, saying it is the top voter concern and that candidates are competing over tougher measures. The only overlap is a broad rightward shift in Latin America, which France 24 ties to a Bolsonaro win while NPR mentions more generally.
