Post‑Second‑Round Donations: Lula R$1.99 Million, Flávio R$1.10 Million

Post-election transfers plus crowdfunding aim to clear unpaid campaign bills before the TSE’s Nov. 14 filing deadline.

Overview

  • TSE/DivulgaCand records show the Lula campaign received about R$1.99 million after the second round while Flávio Bolsonaro’s campaign took in roughly R$1.098 million, with Lula’s entries updated through Nov. 9 and Flávio’s most recent on Nov. 4.
  • More than half of Lula’s post-election receipts came as a R$1.2 million transfer from the PT national fund and about R$746,000 came from crowdfunding, where the PT is asking supporters for R$13 Pix donations to raise R$7 million by Nov. 11.
  • Lula’s campaign declared roughly R$93.9 million in total expenses with about R$92 million already paid; the largest cost categories were third‑party services (about R$41.8 million) and paid online promotion, with major suppliers including Delta3 and Facebook Serviços Online do Brasil.
  • Flávio Bolsonaro’s post-election funding is concentrated in larger gifts, led by businessman Marcelo Soares Cruz whose recent transfers total R$585,000 and bring his overall donations to R$2.42 million for the campaign.
  • Campaigns may keep raising money only to pay debts already incurred and must submit final accounts to the TSE by Nov. 14, after which parties typically must formalize payment plans or assume remaining obligations if receipts fall short.
