Right-Wing Congress Gains Boost Bolsonaro Before Brazil Runoff

Original: Right-wing wave in Brazil's Congress boosts Bolsonaro camp ahead of presidential runoff

Brazil's congressional elections delivered a strong right-wing wave, giving President Jair Bolsonaro's allies greater strength in the legislature ahead of the presidential runoff against Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva. The results mean that whoever wins the presidency will face a Congress more aligned with Bolsonaro's camp, reshaping the balance of power in Brasilia and complicating governing plans for either candidate.

Why now: The runoff between Bolsonaro and Lula is imminent, and the congressional results reshape the political landscape around it.
