In Brazil, votes are being counted in the presidential election, and Brazilian right-winger Flavio Bolsonaro, son of former President Jair Bolsonaro, is leading with a stable margin over the incumbent president and leftist Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva. According to a partial count of 64.81% of the votes, Bolsonaro is leading with 49.58%, while President Lula has 42.25%. The initial results indicate a surprise in the election, as polls did not predict a decisive victory for either of the two candidates in the first round, which features 11 other candidates and requires 50% of the votes to win the presidency. The expectations were that the election would continue to a second and decisive round on October 25.
