Brazil Election: Claims About Lula, Bolsonaro and Poll Hours

Here's what you need to know about the

elections in Brazil last night because, oh

my God. So on October 6th, you

had the first round of presidential

elections.

Right-winger Flávio Bolsonaro

won 47% of the vote.

Radical left-winger and current president,

Luiz Lula de Silva, won 45% of the vote.

But because neither party got over 50%,

they had to do a second round, and last

night Lula got 51% of the

vote and Flávio got 48.

And that's just so odd because it's

the first time since their

return to democracy

in 1989 where a candidate who won the

first round would lose in the second.

And lefty Lula didn't just win,

he crushed, gaining 11 million votes in

the second round. So here's the drama.

The 213 cities that chose Flávio in the

first round

suddenly switched and

chose Lula in the second.

He was confirmed at 9:00 PM.

But earlier that day,

lefty Lula filed a lawsuit with the

Supreme Federal

Court saying that people were having

trouble getting to the polls

due to heavy

rain. So his minister

of the Supreme Court,

Cristiano, ordered the polls to stay

open until 7:00 PM, but only the polls

that had not yet closed.

So if you'd already

closed up your poll shop,

well then, tough luck.

But the big fat problem is that Brazil

is huge and spans across multiple time

zones, and in areas where

Bolsonaro would've led,

the polls had already closed

up. Okay. But the

areas that Lula needed more votes in

were in different time

zones and were allowed to stay

open, all thanks to this guy, Cristiano,

who loves to give big hugs to Lula because

they're very good friends.

In fact, Cristiano used

to be a defense attorney

and represented Lula and got him

back into politics after he was

jailed in 2019 for money laundering,

embezzlement, and corruption. Oh, isn't that lovely?

So there you go, he won,

even though the public was behind Flávio,

potentially

because of very shady

last minute rule changes.

And now poor Flávio is trying to annul the election,

but it probably won't happen.

And actually, the drama goes

deeper because Flávio's dad

used to be president.

In 2022, Flávio's dad lost to lefty Lula,

and he, knowing that Lula is

one of the most corrupt politicians

there is, tried

to question the results and stay in power.

For that, they called

it a coup, and he was sent to jail for 27 years.

He's still in jail right now,

but everyone knows that's ridiculous,

which is why

his wife and his son, Carlos, got elected to Senate,

and his other son won a seat

in the House, and his other son, Flávio,

almost got elected to the presidency.

But of course, he didn't

because lefty Lula had his

friend pull some strings and

keep the polls open that he needed.

Now, this looks pretty shady to me, wouldn't you say?

But you can't say because

they'll call you crazy,

and corruption's only fine when

the left does it. In fact,

the left is celebrating, of course.

Even our

Hollywood left is celebrating.

They're doing this,

which I don't think this means what they

think it means.

L for Lula or L for losers? So

this is all just great. I don't know.

It's very sad what's happening.

Hopefully, the right

can get 'em next time.

But just know that if our

Democrats get power,

they will stack the Supreme Court

with judges they like, make DC and

Puerto Rico states so they can get

more Senate

seats, and they will mandate ballot harvesting

across the country because they told

us they would. And yet, the

entire time they'll claim you,

a Republican, is the

true fascist simply for

breathing. So that's the drama going on in Brazil.

Sorry, Brazil. Love y'all.
