BRASILIA (Sputnik) - Incumbent Brazilian leader Jair Bolsonaro and his main opponent, Brazil's former President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva, will participate in the presidential runoff later this month, since none of the candidates managed to get over 50% in first round, the Superior Electoral Court (TSE) said.
With over 97% of the votes counted in the Sunday election, Bolsonaro has 43.63%, while Lula has 47.93%.
"Elections are mathematically decided (second round)," the TSE said on its website, where it updates the vote count.
