Photos: Lula supporters flood streets in celebration of historic win

Supporters of Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva celebrated his re-election in cities including Rio de Janeiro and São Paulo, with fireworks, songs and Brazilian and Workers’ Party flags. Official results gave Lula 51.8 percent of the vote against 48.2 percent for his far-right rival, Senator Flávio Bolsonaro, securing Lula an unprecedented fourth term. Lula praised the high turnout and said Brazilians had “voted to defend democracy.” Flávio Bolsonaro refused to accept the result and said he would seek to have the vote annulled.
