Lula wins fourth term in Brazil with comeback over Flávio Bolsonaro

Brazil's leftist president Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva has won a historic fourth term, defeating far-right rival Flávio Bolsonaro. With nearly 99% of votes counted, Lula had 51.75% to Bolsonaro's 48.25%. He had narrowly lost the first round weeks earlier; never since Brazil's return to democracy had a first-round runner-up gone on to win the runoff.
