Brasilia, October 1 (RHC)-- In Brazil, voters head to the polls tomorrow, Sunday, for an election that could see far-right President Jair Bolsonaro replaced by former President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva. 

Surveys show Lula has a strong lead over Bolsonaro, but it remains unclear if he has enough support to win the 11-way race outright.  If not, Brazil will hold a runoff on October 30th. 

Lula has been running on a platform to reduce inequality, preserve the Amazon rainforest and protect Brazil’s Indigenous communities.  There is widespread fear in Brazil that Bolsonaro could attempt to stage a coup if he loses the election. 

Earlier in the campaign, Bolsonaro said: “Only God will remove me [from power]. … The army is on our side.  It’s an army that doesn’t accept corruption, doesn’t accept fraud.”
