Bolsonaro Kicks Off Re-Election Bid


“Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro made official his bid to run for reelection in October, giving him three months to close a double-digit gap to secure victory,” the AP reports.

“The Liberal Party’s formal approval of Bolsonaro’s candidacy took place at its convention Sunday in a Rio de Janeiro stadium. Support was widely expected and merely symbolic, given that the far-right president has effectively been campaigning for months, crisscrossing the country to drum up support and remind voters why they shouldn’t back his nemesis, leftist former President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva.”

Said Bolsonaro: “We don’t need another ideology that hasn’t worked anywhere else in the world. We need to improve what we have. Our life wasn’t easy, but one thing comforts me isn’t seeing a communist sitting in that chair of mine.”
