Bolsonaro refuses to concede defeat in Brazil and calls for result to be annulled
The far-right candidate announces a legal battle against what he called an ‘outrage’ following a judge’s decision to extend voting by two hours

Just as in 2022, Bolsonarism does not accept defeat. Back then it was the father, Jair Bolsonaro, and now the son Flávio, both defeated at the polls by Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva. The far-right candidate announced late Sunday night in Brasília that he does not recognize the result of the election and will fight to have it annulled. His argument rests on a Supreme Federal Court (STF) judge’s decision to extend polling hours by two hours after complaints about the lack of transportation for voters. The request had originally been made by the Workers’ Party (PT), but Bolsonaro’s own Liberal Party (PL) later joined it.
