Bolsonaro’s silence on election loss has Brazil on edge
São Paulo | Nearly 24 hours after his defeat in Brazil’s runoff election, President Jair Bolsonaro has yet to be seen or heard from, keeping voters guessing on whether he will concede defeat to his old foe Luiz Inacio “Lula” da Silva.
Mr Bolsonaro didn’t make any public comments on Sunday night (Monday AEDT) after Brazil’s electoral court said he lost the election to Mr Da Silva by less than 2 percentage points, the smallest margin for a presidential election in the country’s modern history.
