The runoff pits the incumbent president against the son of imprisoned former president Jair Bolsonaro, turning the election into a direct contest between Brazil’s left and the Bolsonaro movement. The result could reshape Brazil’s domestic policies, international relationships and political balance, while a tight outcome may heighten tensions as ballots are counted.
