After losing to Lula, Bolsonaro’s son calls for election annulment: “The result cannot be recognized

Flavio Bolsonaro said he would seek to annul Brazil’s presidential election after refusing to accept his defeat to Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva in Sunday’s runoff. The conservative candidate for the Liberal Party (PL) challenged the legality of the Supreme Court’s decision to extend voting by two hours. Speaking in Brasilia after Lula was declared re-elected, he said the result could not be accepted because, in his view, the rules had been changed during the election process. Bolsonaro questioned how voting day had been conducted and said there were still many issues that needed clarification. In particular, he criticized the decision allowing voting to continue for two hours at some polling stations.
