Brazil's far-right President Jair Bolsonaro said Friday he would accept possible defeat in the second round of the presidential election on October 30 provided “nothing abnormal” occurs during the vote. Lula da Silva was for months the big favourite in opinion polls, with a 21-point lead over Bolsonaro in May, according to the Datafolha institute. But Bolsonaro surprised in the first round on October 2, winning 43 percent of the vote, a much smaller gap than polls had predicted. (Photo by Caio Guatelli/AFP Photo)
