The author wrote that a Lula victory that night would elevate Piauí Governor Rafael Fonteles, who had taken over the campaign’s communications strategy after the first-round defeat.

The author wrote that, if Lula lost that night, the defeat would stem from a sluggish, poorly coordinated first-round campaign.

MARWA said that she spent four years being insulted on Twitter exclusively by leftists and accused of various things, without that leading her to change her position. She criticized people who, as she wrote, said they would vote for a militiaman after being called fascists online by one or two people, and stated that they were giving themselves too much importance. She also said that anyone who changed their position because of online comments and a statement from pedrinhodce1917 would have a weak mind and be easily influenced. #Fascismo #LiberdadeDeExpressão #PoliticaBrasileira (translated)

Antonio Tabet wrote that, during the Band debate, Lula offered to waive bank and telephone secrecy and challenged Flávio Bolsonaro to do the same. According to Tabet, Flávio conditioned his acceptance on the opening of accounts belonging to relatives and allies of the current president, after being pressured by allies. Tabet attributed the proposal to Pablo Marçal, whom he insulted and ironically referred to as a "strategist" and "future minister." Tabet stated that Lula accepted the condition and questioned whether Flávio would back down, pretend to faint, or claim social phobia. #Lula #FlávioBolsonaro #PolíticaBrasileira (translated)

Leandro Ruschel stated that the owner of Quaest, an institute he described as linked to Lula News, explained that the projection of a technical tie needed to consider voters who did not vote in the first round and could vote in the second. According to Ruschel, Flávio received 43% of the votes from those who had chosen other candidates in the first round, compared to 37% for Lula. Among those who did not vote, a group he said was larger, Lula had 40%, against 36% for Flávio. Ruschel added that this group would be less likely to appear in the second round and that, even with the participation of a significant portion, it would not be enough to change the result. #Eleições2023 #Lula #PolíticaBrasileira (translated)
