Former President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva, who was sentenced to prison in 2018 on charges of bribery and money laundering.
However, all six charges were cleared and political rights were fully restored.
Lula started preparing for the October presidential election by attending a large rally.
The poll also showed a 43 percent approval rating, ranking first by a landslide.

The second-highest approval rating is the current president, Jair Bolsonaro.
However, only 29 percent said they support Bolsonaro.
Bolsonaro is calling for the rally of far-right forces, saying the survey is negative or people don't know well.

However, 59 percent of the poll respondents said they would never vote for Bolsonaro, disgracing the candidate with the highest "rejection rate."
Voters cited the current rise in fuel prices, environmental destruction, failure to respond to COVID-19, and human rights violations as the Bolsonaro government's actual conditions.

It is not that there is no hope for Bolsonaro.
Last month, two right-wing parties joined forces to launch a huge political party, which could change the current landscape if it supports Bolsonaro.
Four leading left-wing parties also agreed to form a coalition earlier this month and declared their support for Lula, predicting a single-tree clash between former and current presidents.
