Flávio Bolsonaro Narrows Gap Against Lula, DataFolha Poll Shows

Senator Flávio Bolsonaro is narrowing his gap with President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva in Brazil’s looming election, with a new poll showing both effectively tied in a potential runoff vote.

Flávio, a right-wing senator and eldest son of imprisoned former President Jair Bolsonaro, would receive 43% of the vote to Lula’s 46% in a head-to-head scenario, newspaper Folha de S. Paulo reported on Saturday, citing the latest Datafolha survey.
