POLITICS: Too close to call
The latest opinion poll by Ibope shows President Dilma Rousseff of the ruling Partido dos Trabalhadores (PT) on 36% ahead of the first round vote on 5 October, with Marina Silva of the Partido Socialista Brasileiro (PSB) on 30% and Aécio Neves of the main opposition Partido da Social Democracia Brasileiro (PSDB), on 19%, a rise of four percentage points on the previous poll. Ibope predicts a technical tie between Silva and Rousseff in a second round run-off scenario.
