About 33 million Brazilians did not vote in the first round of Brazil's presidential election, and polls predicted Lula was finished.
“Some 33 million Brazilians had sat out that first round, and polls just predicted he was done.”
Lula beat Flavio Bolsonaro by more than 4 million votes in the Brazilian presidential runoff.
“He outperformed Flavio Bolsonaro, the son of the former far-right president, by more than 4 million votes.”
Lula da Silva turned 81 the day after the runoff, and the reporter says he seemed shocked by the turnaround.
“I think Lula, who turns eighty-one tomorrow, was even shocked by the turnaround himself.”
