MADRID, 30 Oct. (EUROPA PRESS) -

The former president of Brazil Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva (PT) has celebrated the last campaign event on the eve of the election on Paulista Avenue, one of the most important streets in Sao Paulo, an event in which he has been accompanied by the former president of Uruguay, Jose Mujica.

Da Silva has participated in a march along the avenue, where he has asked for the vote for his candidacy in the presidential elections this Sunday. In addition, Brazil elects the governors of 12 states in the second round, so the PT candidate to govern Sao Paulo has also addressed supporters and demanded their support at the polls, according to 'Folha de S.Paulo' .

Brazilian electoral law prohibits rallies on the eve of elections, so candidates cannot deliver a speech from a fixed platform. However, the rule authorizes walks, caravans as has been the case with Bolsonaro or marches in which messages of the candidacy are disseminated and the vote is requested.

The former Brazilian president (2003-2010) has reached the day before the election with a slight advantage over his opponent, according to the latest poll published this Saturday by Datafolha Da Silva, he would win 52 percent of the valid votes while that Bolsonaro would have the remaining 48.

Since 1997, no candidate who has lost in the first round has been victorious in the second, however, 2 percent of those surveyed remain undecided about the direction of their vote, while 4 percent believe that they will not participate. .
