#Urgent Polling stations in Brazil were supposed to close at 5pm local time. The Supreme Court extended it 2 hrs because there were widespread transportation issues. Polls didn't get the word on time. The place I was reporting from closed at 5pm. Very concerning @PAdispatch

The outcome of today’s presidential elections will determine whether Trump and his allies achieve their biggest Latin American victory, or whether progressive forces can prevent the destruction of Brazilian sovereignty by re-electing Lula. alboradamedia.substack.com/p…

Workers Party legend José Genoino is encouraged by late surge in the polls and by conversations he's been having with people on the streets of S. Paulo, but warns Lula supporters that they have work to bring out the vote until the last minute. panamericandispatch.org/p/jo…

We’ve covered 4 elections and 3 coups (or coup attempts). Today’s Lula rally on São Paulo’s Avenida Paulista was the biggest political demonstration we have ever seen.
