Views on Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva are split, with a slight tendency to see him as unlikely to prevail. Jair Bolsonaro is also viewed as doubtful to take the top spot. When it comes to who might lead the first vote count, many expect Lula to come out ahead, while Flavio Bolsonaro and Ronaldo Caiado are seen as unlikely to top the initial tally.
