Lula and Bolsonaro, in a technical tie 4 days before the ballot

Lula lost 1.1%, the same proportion that Bolsonaro increased compared to the Paraná Research survey carried out last week, placing the two politicians in a scenario of a technical tie, a faithful representation of the historical polarization that the country is experiencing.

Since the poll has a margin of error of 2.2 points for more and less, Lula and Bolsonaro are technically tied.

This query took into account the valid votes, excluding the blank and null ones, following the same criteria that the Superior Electoral Court (TSE) in the second shift next Sunday.

48.6% of those interviewed declared that they would never vote for Lula and 48.8% said that they would never vote for Bolsonaro.

48.4% of the voters consider that the former left-wing president will be the winner and 44.0% estimate that the ultra-conservative, who surprised with the flow of votes in favor in the first electoral round on Sunday 2, will achieve his second term.

No re-election for Lula

Former President Lula da Silva insisted on Tuesday that, if he is proclaimed the winner in the second round on Sunday, he will not stand for re-election in 2026.

“If elected, I will be president for a period. Leaders are made by working, in their commitment to the population,” he said in his official profile on the social network Twitter, when there are barely four days left for the second round of elections to be held.

This is the sixth time that Lula has stood for election, winning in 2002 and 2006. In the three previous elections –1998, 1994 and 1989– the leftist leader was overtaken by Fernando Collor de Mello and by Fernando Henrique Cardoso on two occasions.
