Former leftist President Luis Inacio Lula Da Silva (2003-2010) was elected yesterday, Sunday, as president of Brazil, by winning by a slight difference over his outgoing right-wing rival, Gayer Bolsonaro, by 50. 83 percent compared to 49. 17 percent, according to the semi-final official results.
The 77-year-old legend Lula had already served a prison term for corruption-related offences (2018–2019) when he gave the judiciary the order to free him.
After a bitterly divisive election campaign that saw a lot of attraction, Lula came back to power.
If not for Da Silva, Brazil would not have had a winner for president.
