Summary

Vera Magalhães analyzes pre-election polls for the Brazilian presidential race, highlighting a tightening contest and a significant "blue wave" of right-wing momentum in Senate and gubernatorial races. She notes that despite left-wing leads, the right could secure key Senate seats in major states like São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro. The commentary also explores how first-turn governor victories will shape the dynamics of a potential second round between Lula and Flávio Bolsonaro, while acknowledging the slim but possible chance of a first-turn resolution due to high abstention rates.
