President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva fired Brazil's army chief on Saturday. Lula has said that some in the military allowed the Jan. 8 uprising in the capital by far-right protesters.

Brazilians began voting on Sunday in a polarizing presidential runoff election that pits conservative President Jair Bolsonaro against former President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva.

More than 120 million Brazilians will vote Sunday in a highly polarized election that could determine if the country returns a leftist to the helm of the world's fourth-largest democracy.

Sunday's election in Brazil represents an important gauge of how far to the right voters in Latin America's largest nation are prepared to turn.
