Datafolha: Lula maintains leadership among the poorest and Bolsonaro, in the above income brackets

The latest Datafolha poll shows that Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva (PT) maintains his advantage among the poorest voters, with a family income of up to two minimum wages (R$2,424), while Jair Bolsonaro (PL) continues to lead among those earning above of that value.

This week, the PT reduced its distance to the rival in the ranges of two to five salaries and above ten salaries. On the other hand, the president widened the gap in the group of five to ten salaries. All variations, however, were within the groups’ margin of error.

It is two percentage points in the total in the survey – which heard 6,800 people from Tuesday (27) to this Thursday (29) -, but it rises to four points among those earning five to ten salaries and to six points among the richest. .

In Brazil, 50% of the electorate earns up to two minimum wages; 34%, from two to five; 8%, from five to ten; and 4% receive more than that, according to Datafolha.

See below how the two are evolving by income in the stimulated responses, that is, in which the names of the candidates are read to the interviewee. The survey registration number at the Electoral Court is BR-09479/2022.
