Lula said he d run for office “if necessary to beat a fascist-like Bolsonaro.”
Former Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula Da Silva s convictions were annulled Thursday by the country s Supreme Court (STF) in an 8-3 ruling which clears the Workers Party (PT) iconic figure to seek a new term in 2022.
Lula, 75, who spent 580 days in a Curitiba jail before his release in 2019 pending appeal, has announced after the ruling that he would in fact be a candidate if necessary to beat a fascist-like [current President Jair] Bolsonaro. Polls released Wednesday in Brazil showed Lula would win with 52% of the vote against 34 in a hypothetical runoff.
