    RIO DE JANEIRO, Oct. 25 (Xinhua) -- Fernando Haddad, the presidential candidate of the Brazilian Workers' Party, on Thursday promised to generate new jobs and prioritize education if he wins the election on Sunday.

    "Every human being has to get up and have a destination, whether that is the university, a school, daycare for their child, a workplace, a dignified job, a small business. It is very important that people have an activity," Haddad said during an interview with local radio station Tupi.

    According to a recent poll, Haddad has 43 percent of valid votes. His opponent, Jair Bolsonaro of the Social Liberal Party, has 57 percent.

    On Thursday, Haddad met with observers from the Organization of American States (OAS). He gave them a document with his claims of fake news against him on WhatsApp and the alleged illegal campaign financing of his opponent's campaign by businessmen.

    "What the people want are clean and free elections, a climate of peace in the country without gestures of violence," Haddad told the press following his meeting with the OAS members.

    The leftist candidate once again criticized Bolsonaro for not taking part in the televised debates and press conferences.

    Bolsonaro said he is under doctor's orders not to take part in the events due to his lengthy hospitalization after being stabbed on Sept. 6 during a campaign rally.

    In the first round of Brazil's presidential election held on Oct. 7, Bolsonaro gained 46 percent of the votes, while Haddad won 29.1 percent. They would race for Brazil's presidency in the run-off on Sunday.
