AGP Executive Report
Last update: 9 hours agoRunoff Race: Brazil heads to Sunday’s presidential vote in a dead heat. Flávio Bolsonaro led the first round, but a new poll puts him at 45% against Lula’s 44%, within the margin of error. Lula is ramping up online campaigning and street outreach to win over undecided voters and first-round abstainers. Platform Scrutiny: Meta faces mounting pressure to show it treated both campaigns fairly after allegations that it restricted more than 1,000 pro-Lula accounts. The company denies political bias. Voting Access: Indigenous groups and federal prosecutors are seeking urgent help for remote Amazon communities, where voters face transport barriers and may miss the runoff. The result could also shape the Amazon’s future: deforestation has fallen to a record low, but conservation gains are at stake. Economic Outlook: ECLAC forecasts Brazil’s economy will grow 2.1% in 2026 and 2% in 2027, below its projections for South America’s fastest-growing economies.
