- According to Folha, internal messages acknowledged restrictions that hindered Lula’s Instagram accounts during the election.
- The messages reportedly said the platform also recommended Senator Flavio Bolsonaro’s profile and his WhatsApp channel.
- Meta said the technical issues were already public and concerned only their severity, not political interference.
- On Thursday, Brazil’s top electoral court barred Meta from unjustifiably limiting political content for either candidate and required Meta AI neutrality.
Any suggestion that Meta favors one side is false.— Meta, in a statement responding to reports of alleged political interference during Brazil's election

- After more than 99% of votes were counted, Flávio Bolsonaro had roughly 47% and Lula 45%; neither exceeded 50%.
- The third-, fourth- and fifth-place presidential candidates were right-wing and could provide Bolsonaro additional runoff votes.
- Early results also pointed to significant gains for the right in Congress, particularly in the Senate.
- During the next three campaign weeks, security, corruption, the economy and Brazil’s relationship with the United States are likely to dominate.
It's the end of the Workers' Party era.— Flávio Bolsonaro said to journalists and supporters outside his Brasília home after the results came in.
