Lula should have 79%.
'If 79% are indeed Democrats, Lula should win with 79%', he points out.
Datafolha reported that 79% of Brazilians prefer democracy, the highest rate since 1989. Great. Hallelujah.
However, three weeks ago, 43% of voters voted for Bolsonaro, and 48% for Lula.
It's incomprehensible that adults haven't realized, after four years, that Bolsonaro is an anti-democrat par excellence, daily committed to undermining the democratic regime and the greatest poster boy for the bloody military regime of '64, which he is trying to resurrect.
If in four years he was the greatest enemy of the democracy that elected him since 1985, everything indicates that if he is given another four years he will complete the task of destroying it. And perpetuate himself in power.
On the other hand, during the eight years he governed the country, Lula never threatened democracy. If he is elected for a third time, free and direct presidential elections are guaranteed in four years.
The choice on October 30th will not be between Lula and Bolsonaro; between PT and PL; between left and right.
More than a presidential election, it will be a plebiscite between democracy and dictatorship.
If 79% are indeed Democrats, Lula should win with 79%.
