1 Ekim 2026France 24

Incumbent President Lula aims for re-election on October 4, highlighting significant poverty reduction in Brazil.
In Brazil, President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva is campaigning for a fourth term in the upcoming elections. His administration has focused on combating hunger and poverty, successfully lifting nearly nine million people out of poverty between 2023 and 2024.
The significant reduction in poverty, especially in the Northeast region, raises questions about whether this achievement will enhance his support among voters. FRANCE 24's team provides on-the-ground insights into the election dynamics.
Lula's previous terms were marked by significant social advancements, but his return to power has faced challenges, including economic fluctuations and political opposition. The upcoming election is pivotal not only for Lula's legacy but also for the direction of Brazil's social policies.
Lula's emphasis on social programs has historically resonated with voters, particularly in regions like the Northeast where poverty rates have been high. The effectiveness of these programs in improving living conditions may play a crucial role in swaying undecided voters.
