Lula requests the disqualification of Flávio Bolsonaro from Brazil's presidential race

Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva's campaign team has requested the disqualification of Flávio Bolsonaro from the Brazilian presidential race, citing alleged abuse of economic power and social media misuse. This follows Flávio Bolsonaro's own request for Lula's disqualification, accusing him of using government resources for campaign propaganda. Lula's team claims that Meta, the parent company of Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp, has manipulated content to favor Flávio Bolsonaro. The TSE has mandated Meta to ensure equal treatment of both candidates on its platforms. Flávio Bolsonaro narrowly led in the first round of voting, but historically, no candidate finishing second has won in Brazil's two-round presidential elections.
