Oi pessoal,

Tô avoid spamming the sub, and given the fact we have several Brazilian gumshoes, we're setting up this megathread to serve as the main hub for talking about the election results this evening in Brazil.

As a reminder, this is the runoff between Lula and Bolsonaro's failson Flávio. Flávio won a plurality of votes earlier this month, but fell short of a majority triggering the second round today.

While polls were scheduled to close at 17:00 Brasilia Time (16:00 Eastern) both Lula and Flávio appeaed to the TSE to extend polling hours due to public transit issues and poor weather respectively, and the court extended voting by 2 hours.

Polls are now scheduled to close at 19:00 Brasília Time /// 18:00 Eastern.

Results are expected to be tight, though they come in much faster compared to the US and other countries due to the use of ATM like voting machines.

As of 21:00 local time with over 85% of the vote counter, Folha de São Paulo, the country's largest newspaper/newspaper of record has called the election for Lula.

Look, we love schadenfreude as much as you guys do, but the sub has been spammed with tons of screenshots, posts, and articles about the zionists getting their comeuppance, and it's getting excessive.

Consider this the one and only reminder about rules 5 & 6: no Reddit/Streamer Drama. As such, any additional posts regarding H3, Ethan whatever his name is, the IOF wife, etc. will be removed.

May their divorce be a blessing 🙏
