Brazil: A portrait of Flavio Bolsonaro

Brazilians are voting for governors and lawmakers, but the biggest stakes are in the presidential race. Twelve candidates are on the ballot, but the contest is seen as a toss-up between President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva and Flavio Bolsonaro.

What the coverage shows

All six outlets frame the race as a close, high-stakes contest between Lula and Flávio Bolsonaro, and most highlight Brazil heading to the polls or the final campaign push. France 24 and the AP emphasize the São Paulo campaign stops, while CNBC stands apart by focusing on Wall Street’s market expectations and Newsweek by foregrounding the election as a Trump-Ally Bolsonaro versus Lula matchup. BBC News and Al Jazeera stress the polling and polarization, with France 24 alone mentioning scandals and mudslinging in its extract.
