SAO PAULO (AP) — Brazilian Sen. Flávio Bolsonaro, one of the sons of former President Jair Bolsonaro, is expected to be confirmed as the presidential candidate of his father’s Liberal Party on Saturday in his bid against incumbent Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva as his campaign faces many headwinds.
The 45-year-old Sen. Bolsonaro still seeks a running mate and does not enjoy the support of centrist parties as his father did. Even his popular stepmother, Michelle Bolsonaro, is not expected to join him at the Arena Mercado Livre Pacaembu in Sao Paulo after they recently exchanged barbs.
