Brazil's presidential election is set for a second round after far-right candidate Flávio Bolsonaro led the first round but failed to secure an outright majority. With more than 98% of votes counted, Bolsonaro, the son of former president Jair Bolsonaro, received 47.3%.
Incumbent leftwing president Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva garnered 44.8% of the vote. The two candidates will now face each other in a runoff election on 25 October.
Bolsonaro is expected to be boosted in the second round by votes from other rightwing candidates, including Ronaldo Caiado and Renan Santos, who each secured 2.2%.
The far-right also saw a strong performance in other races, with several Bolsonarista politicians, including Jair Bolsonaro's second son Carlos Bolsonaro and his wife Michelle Bolsonaro, winning seats in the senate. Jair Renan, Bolsonaro's youngest son, was elected to the lower house of congress, and former infrastructure minister Tarcísio de Freitas was reelected as governor of São Paulo.
