联邦最高法院大法官克里斯蒂亚诺·扎宁周日发布紧急裁决，将巴西全国的投票时间延长两小时，至巴西利亚时间下午7点（格林威治标准时间22:00）结束。此前，两位总统候选人分别提交了紧急请愿。
Federal Supreme Court Justice Cristiano Zanin issued an urgent ruling on Sunday extending voting hours across all of Brazil by two hours until 7 pm Brasilia time (22:00 GMT), following separate emergency petitions filed by both presidential candidates.
这一延长投票时间的决定，是在现任总统路易斯·伊纳西奥·卢拉·达席尔瓦和保守派参议员弗拉维奥·博尔索纳罗周日清早投票之后作出的。民调显示，这场两极分化严重的决选陷入统计学意义上的僵持。
The extension comes after incumbent President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva and conservative Senator Flavio Bolsonaro cast their ballots early Sunday morning in a deeply divided runoff election that polls indicate is locked in a statistical dead heat.
卢拉总统最初向高等选举法院和最高法院请愿，要求在关键的大都市据点延长投票时间，其中包括拥有近200万登记选民的巴伊亚州首府萨尔瓦多，以及拥有900多万选民的圣保罗。
President Lula initially petitioned the Superior Electoral Court and the Supreme Court to extend voting in key metropolitan strongholds, including Salvador, the capital of Bahia with nearly 2 million registered voters, and Sao Paulo, home to over 9 million voters.
卢拉在公开讲话中说：“我们要的是一场诚实的选举，让每个人都能行使投票权。”他敦促选民不要离开投票队伍。“请等待并投票，因为民主必须获胜。”提起法律挑战的原因是萨尔瓦多出现严重的交通瓶颈，市政官员报告称，至少75辆公共汽车被阻挡在车库内无法出库。
"What we want is an election done honestly and with everyone having their right to vote," Lula said in a public address, urging voters not to abandon polling lines. "Wait, and vote, because democracy must win." The legal challenge was prompted by severe transit bottlenecks in Salvador, where municipal officials reported that at least 75 public buses were blocked from leaving garages.
萨尔瓦多市政厅指控，工会工人在公共交通车辆上贴上了工人党（PT）的标志和候选人编号13，违反了联邦选举广告法。
Salvador City Hall alleged that union workers applied stickers bearing the Workers' Party (PT) logo and candidate number 13 onto public transit vehicles, violating federal electoral advertising laws.
巴伊亚州地区选举法院立即对萨尔瓦多交通部长巴勃罗·索萨发布了逮捕令，指控其涉及与车队减少有关的选举犯罪。联邦警察因索萨目前正在巴黎执行官方政府贸易任务，未能执行该命令。
The Bahia Regional Electoral Court issued an immediate arrest warrant for Salvador’s Secretary of Mobility Pablo Souza, citing an electoral crime linked to the fleet reduction. Federal Police have been unable to execute the order as Souza is currently in Paris on an official government trade mission.
在卢拉提起法律诉讼后不久，弗拉维奥·博尔索纳罗所属的自由党（PL）提交了平行请求，要求选举机构将圣保罗、巴拉那和圣卡塔琳娜等17个市镇的投票站开放至下午7点，因为暴雨和洪水给选民投票造成了严重障碍。
Shortly after Lula’s legal filing, Flavio Bolsonaro’s Liberal Party (PL) submitted a parallel request asking electoral authorities to keep polling stations open until 7 pm across 17 municipalities in Sao Paulo, Parana, and Santa Catarina, where torrential rains and flooding created severe obstacles for voters.
联邦最高法院大法官克里斯蒂亚诺·扎宁将这些请求合并审理，批准了一项覆盖全国的统一延期，以确保投票条件一致。
Justice Cristiano Zanin of the Federal Supreme Court unified these requests, granting a blanket extension across the entire nation to ensure uniform voting conditions.
巴西决选的结果普遍预计将在拉丁美洲产生共鸣，近期该地区的选举反映出更广泛的保守派转向。
The outcome of the Brazilian runoff is widely expected to resonate across Latin America, where recent elections have reflected a broader conservative pivot.
美国总统唐纳德·特朗普周日在华盛顿对记者表示，他正在“密切关注”巴西选举日的事态发展，但避免对任何一位候选人做出明确背书。
Speaking to reporters in Washington on Sunday, US President Donald Trump said he was "closely monitoring" the election day developments in Brazil, though he refrained from making an explicit endorsement for either candidate.
