Flávio Bolsonaro (son of jailed ex-president Jair Bolsonaro) led the first round with 47% versus incumbent Lula's 45%, a roughly 2.2 million vote gap that beat most polling projections.
Bolsonaro's PL party also won the largest congressional bloc.
In São Paulo, Bolsonaro ally Tarcísio de Freitas was reelected governor with about 63%.
