00:00A political campaign in Brazil has been on the way for a week and the candidates are stepping up their
00:04activities in the regions ahead of the elections on October 4th.
00:08Both Flávio Bolsonaro of the far right and Lula da Silva of the Workers' Party focused their itineraries on Rio
00:15de Janeiro.
00:15Our correspondent, André Vieira, tells us how the day unfolded.
00:20It was a day of campaigning in Rio de Janeiro for Brazil's two leading presidential candidates.
00:26As a representative of the far right, Flávio Bolsonaro used part of his speech to promise a new security policy
00:34for the country.
00:37After a series of rallies with low turnout, Jair Bolsonaro's son held a meeting in a closed gymnasium but emphasized
00:45that his place is on the streets.
00:49Because we represent the will of the Brazilian people, we feel deep in our hearts that Brazil can't take four
00:56more years of the PT.
00:58They belong in the palace, we belong on the streets.
01:03On his first visit to Rio de Janeiro during the campaign, Lula da Silva drew a crowd to the Moca
01:10Bonita Stadium in Bangu, a working-class neighborhood on the city's outskirts.
01:16Raquel Costa, 40 years old, lives in this area and came because she was one of the beneficiaries of the
01:23public policies created by the left.
01:28My mother always received benefits, and one that I'll never forget created by the president was the citizen's check.
01:34It was something that really helped my family back then.
01:37Today, I receive Bolsa Familia and gas vouchers thanks to the president.
01:47Rio de Janeiro is the state with the third largest number of voters in Brazil.
01:52In the political heartland of Bolsonarism, the Workers' Party is banking on a broad local coalition that brings together a
01:59range of parties from the right to the left.
02:02We cannot elect candidates who want us dead, who do not fight for the poor, black, transgender and LGBTQ plus
02:09communities.
02:09We need Lula back in office and the left in power.
02:13One day after the phone call between Lula and the U.S. President, the rally reaffirmed the defense of national
02:21sovereignty in the face of Donald Trump's attacks.
02:28Lula is the only person with the moral stature and courage to fight for Brazil against Donald Trump, who thinks
02:35he owns the world and wants to come here to steal our rare earth minerals and colonize us.
02:46Accompanied by gubernatorial candidate Eduardo País and his Senate candidates, President Lula also advocated for cracking down on organized crime,
02:56promised more investment in health and education and emphasized that mineral exploration will be carried out by the Brazilian people.
03:05Because I am going to educate your children, your own children, and your grandchildren, because they will have to be
03:14prepared to say, this wealth is ours, and this wealth will be the passport to the future of Brazilian society.
03:25Nearly 59 million Brazilians are eligible to vote on October 4.
03:30So far, Lula da Silva continues to lead in all the polls, followed by Flavio Bolsonaro.
