Brazilian voting extended two hours after Supreme Court order

Brazilian election polls were supposed to shut down at 5pm local time on Sunday. That deadline applied to nearly 160 million eligible voters across the nation. Results were expected to emerge in the coming hours. A change happened just before the clock ran out. Supreme Court Justice Cristiano Zanin ordered an extension of voting for two extra hours. This move granted a specific request from President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva's campaign team. The presidential runoff pits him against Senator Flavio Bolsonaro. Both men are locked in a closely watched race that draws intense global attention. No one knows who will win yet, but the window to cast ballots just got wider than planned.
