BBC/ The presidential campaign continues heating-up for the 31 October election.
Jose Serra, trailing Dilma Rousseff in the latest presidential polls, was hit on the head by a roll of tape while campaigning in the Rio's Campo Grande district and after a medical check, canceled his schedule.
Serra also stated that:"This is the assault troop of the Workers' Party."
Dilma's lead over Serra increased to 12 percentage points from 8 percentage points, according to a Vox Populi poll. Her support rose to 51 percent from 48 percent from the previous poll taken Oct.10-11.
Another poll, from Sensus opinion-research, shows Rousseff with 46.8% of the vote, compared with 41.8% for Serra. A total of 4.1% of respondents said they would cast blank or voided protest votes, and 7.2% were undecided. With those results, Sensus said the poll indicated Rousseff would win the election with 52.8% of the so-called valid vote against Serra's 47.2%.
