Looks like Brazil's presidential election will be going to a Second Round at the end of the month. Worker's Party Candidate Dilma Rousseff fell just 3 points short of getting the 50% majority she would have needed to avoid a run off. PDSB Candidate Jose Serra trailed with 33% and it looks like Green Party Candidate Mariana Silva's impressive 19% is probably what shaved that 3% away from Rousseff.
The glass ceiling is cracked- looks like one more good blow will shatter it, but we'll see how the numbers shape up over the next couple of weeks.
