It is 54% compared to 37% in relation to the total.
The popular chief executive registered 470.1 million (66% of the total) likes, comments, shares, and RTs.
Lula da Silva did not even reach half: 202.7 million (29%). He is followed by Ciro Gomes (27.5 million) and Simone Tebet (4.0 million).
In the analysis of tweets posted about the candidates, the president also leads with 64.3 million mentions.

POSTS WITH GREATER IMPACT
Of all the posts published by the candidates in the studied period, 5 of the 10 posts with the most interactions came from Bolsonaro.
At the top of the list is a video of the president posted on his Instagram profile on August 22, with an excerpt from his interview in TV Globo’s Jornal Nacional.
He talks about what the country was like at the beginning of his term and briefly comments on mad cow disease and the war in Europe. Observe:
On the other hand, the last five posts are in the top 10 most interacted posts by Lula da Silva.
The highlight among the leftist’s posts is a photo that the former president published just before he participated in the Jornal Nacional on August 25.
Lula da Silva asked Internet users if they liked his tie.
