Election process
The defeated candidate in Brazil’s presidential election, Flávio Bolsonaro, has referred to himself as “leader of Brazil” in a letter he published on social media after leaving the country for the United States.
Bolsonaro lost to his left-wing rival, Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, in the run-off on Sunday by a difference of 4.4 million votes but has not conceded defeat.
In the letter, he alleges, without offering evidence, that he was the victim of “electoral fraud” and says that he will lead the opposition from the US.
