Peru has held a presidential election with 35 candidates, reflecting deep political instability and rising crime. No candidate has secured over 17% of the vote, making a June 7 runoff likely. Conservative Keiko Fujimori leads, with leftist Roberto Sanchez and far-right Rafael Lopez Aliaga trailing. Voter distrust remains high after nine presidents in ten years and surging violence.
