Did anyone notice the English translation of Lula's name is Squid? Honestly?! I do hope he wins, for the planet's sake.

  > Did anyone notice the English translation of Lula's name is Squid? Honestly?! Fun fact: this name was originally a nickname only. Several election cycles after he became known as "Lula" there was a new law requiring candidates to appear on the ballots by their legal name. So he added the nickname to his real name. And a few elections later the law was repealed, but the name remain. I still miss this law ... too many candidates showing up with crazy made up stuff in their ballot names.
