Peru's Presidential Election Heads to Runoff Amid Tight Race for Second Place
Peru's presidential election has resulted in a tight race for the second and third positions, leading to a runoff election scheduled for June. Keiko Fujimori, the conservative daughter of former President Alberto Fujimori, leads with 17.06% of the votes, but falls short of the 50% needed to avoid a runoff. Roberto Sánchez, a nationalist congressman, and Rafael López Aliaga, an ultraconservative former mayor, are in a close contest for the second spot, with Sánchez slightly ahead. The election has been marked by delays and challenges, with approximately 1,600 tally sheets pending and 5,000 sheets under review due to potential errors.
