Quaest Poll Lula and Flávio Bolsonaro Tied at 41

Source-grounded briefGenerated from retrievable publisher evidence and checked against the linked source.
The latest Quaest poll shows a tied runoff between Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva and Flávio Bolsonaro at 41%, with Lula leading in the first round at 37%.

What happened

A new Genial/Quaest poll of 2,004 voters found Lula at 37% and Flávio Bolsonaro at 33% in the first round, with the runoff simulation tied at 41% each. This reverses Quaest's previous reading, which had shown Flávio Bolsonaro numerically ahead in a runoff. The margin of error is two points.

Why it matters

The tied runoff reading a week before the vote suggests volatility in the election outcome, making a second round on October 25 probable.
