Brazil: Defeat neofascism in the runoff! Mobilize and vote for Lula!
The first round of Brazil's election was a victory for the far right. MES/PSOL argue for an unrelenting struggle to turn the result around, re-elect Lula and prevent neofascism from coming to power.
MES/PSOL (Brazil): Lula's victory was a great democratic triumph against authoritarianism
The victory of Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva (Workers Party, PT) in the 2022 Brazilian elections was the most important democratic triumph since the fall of the military regime (1964-1985). Celebrations took over the country on Sunday night (October 30), harking back to the best traditions of the Brazilian people's struggle. There were hundreds of thousands of people in the streets taken as a whole, with the epicenter of celebrations on Avenida Paulista; the moving scenes of the opening of a voting school in Bahia, where hundreds of people waited with enthusiasm and confidence for the moment to vote for Lula, also expressed this feeling.
