Brazil runoff: voting schedule and what remains to be decided

Brazil’s election runoff is scheduled for October 25, with Lula da Silva and Flávio Bolsonaro competing for the presidency, according to Agência Brasil’s report on the first-round outcome. Runoffs also cover governor contests that were not decided in the first round.

A runoff decides offices where no candidate secured the required first-round majority. Not every first-round choice appears again everywhere; ballots differ according to local contests. These are procedural and candidate details, not a declaration of a result before the electoral authorities publish it.
