Potentially the best result possible. As always, I'm alarmed at how many people have fallen for the promises of a fascist even after seeing them in power for 4 years, but if Lula had won a first round victory, it would've left Bolsonaro's claims that the election was rigged seeming more credible to his slack-jawed partisans. If Bolsonaro gets beaten twice, then it might get more of the "moderates" to believe that it's true, or at least not leave them so angry as to join a coup.
