The Candidates with the Highest Possibilities
Fernando Haddad will obtain the votes of who, opposed with a male chauvinist, racist and homophobic Bolsonaro finds in the candidate of the left the only way that Bolsonaro does not come to power.
Jair Bolsonaro will get the votes of who, fearing that Brazil approaches the Venezuelan model and the Workers' Party retakes the power that allowed him to empty the State, find in the "Donald Trump without money", the option to avoid including the former President Lula da Silva is not only pardoned as he could end up as Chief of Staff in a possible presidency of Haddad.
