BRASILIA, Oct. 26 (Xinhua) -- Brazil's President Dilma Rousseff was reelected to a second term Sunday, official results showed.
Rousseff garnered 1 51.62 percent of the votes, while conservative opposition 2 candidate Aecio Neves of the Social Democratic party (PSDB) got 48.38 percent, with 99.77 percent of the votes counted, the country's Supreme 3 Electoral Court (TSE) said.
Rousseff, 66, won what was considered as Brazil's most bitterly contested presidential race in two decades, as an economic slowdown gave the pro-business PSDB an opportunity to make headway in its campaign.
