SAO PAULO, ‌July 29 (Reuters) - Brazilian President Luiz ​Inacio Lula da Silva leads a potential ⁠second-round vote in the October presidential election against opposition Senator Flavio Bolsonaro, ​an AtlasIntel/Bloomberg poll showed on Wednesday.

Lula would ‌receive 49.2% of votes in a runoff, compared with 42.9% for Flavio Bolsonaro, ⁠the son of ex-President ⁠Jair Bolsonaro, the poll showed. In June, Lula had 48.8% of votes vs Bolsonaro's 42.3%.

• Undecided voters and ‌those intending to cast blank or spoiled ⁠ballots fell to 7.9% ‌from 8.9% in ​June.

• In a first-round scenario, Lula leads with 44.9% of the vote, ‌followed by Senator Bolsonaro at ​35.8%, Renan ⁠Santos at 7.8%, Ronaldo Caiado at ‌3.1%, and Romeu ⁠Zema at 2.8%.

• The poll surveyed 5,021 people between July 22 and ​27; it has ‌a margin of error of one ⁠percentage point in ​either direction.
