Political Analysis stated that, until 2002, 40% of the rural population in the Northeast did not have electricity. According to the author, Lula created the program Light for All in 2003, bringing electricity to almost 8 million Northeasterners. He said that, with electricity at home, residents were able to purchase appliances and study at night, and that migration to the Southeast has dropped by about 60% since then. He also stated that, without this initiative, the right — which, according to him, governed the country for practically the entire 20th century — would have kept Northeasterners without electricity. #LuzPraTodos #Nordeste #EnergiaElétrica (translated)

David Ágape stated that, 25 days after the Lula government suspended betting sites that it had regulated and licensed, illegal houses were still operational. According to him, the government had not taken measures regarding the problem and was focused on trying to get re-elected. Ágape said that the market was regulated in 2023 with the argument of combating illegal betting and protecting bettors. The licensed sites, he stated, went offline starting October 6. He also mentioned a manifestation from the AGU to the STF about the risk of bettors migrating to the illegal market, which, according to estimates he cited, already represented between 38% to 44% or more of the sector. The author claimed that influencers with millions of followers were still promoting illegal betting houses in Instagram stories, despite reports made by A Investigação. He said that no measures had been taken up to that point and that he would continue to monitor the case. https://t.co/1V9t284QDz #ApostasIlegais #Lula #Regulamentação (translated)

The Root Conservative Banido stated that he had elaborated five scenarios that favored Lula's victory. According to him, all presumed a decrease in abstention in the Northeast greater than 1% above the record already registered, an increase in abstention in the other four regions, and a migration of votes from the third way to Lula in a proportion of 60% to 40%. Lula would have won in only one of the five scenarios, a result that the author classified as "brutal." #Lula #Eleições2024 #Democracia (translated)
