Brazil’s two top presidential contenders focused Saturday on rallying supporters in Sao Paulo, the biggest city, a day before the country’s general election.
In dueling campaign events, incumbent Jair Bolsonaro led a motorcade through the city’s streets, while former President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva was in the Avenida Paulista for what his campaign dubbed a “victory walk.” Most polls suggest Lula has a large lead, and some signal he could take enough support to win without having to go to a runoff.
The rally was the last public campaign event for Lula, 76, before the vote. In the afternoon, he capped off the campaign with a press conference in Sao Paulo.
