周四，巴西总统候选人弗拉维奥·博索纳罗宣布不参加选举前的最后一场辩论。
他的对手、现任总统卢拉·伊纳西奥·卢拉·达席尔瓦也决定不出席。
Brazilian presidential candidate Flavio Bolsonaro on Thursday bowed out of the final debate ahead of elections pitting him against leader Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva, who also declined to attend.
现年81岁的卢拉将于周日与前总统雅伊尔·博索纳罗之子进行第一轮投票。
目前民调显示卢拉略占优势，但在预测10月25日可能举行的第二轮投票时，两人的支持率又再次持平。
Lula, on the cusp of 81, will face off against the son of ex-leader Jair Bolsonaro in a first-round vote on Sunday, with polls giving him a slight advantage. The pair are neck-and-neck in projections for a potential runoff on October 25, however.
