Peru Chooses Its Ninth President in a Decade Amid Discontent and Polarized Options
Peruvians head to the polls Sunday in a runoff election between veteran right-wing candidate Keiko Fujimori and leftist lawmaker Roberto Sánchez, a tight race reflecting deep voter fatigue with chronic political instability. The winner becomes Peru's ninth president in a decade amid rising crime, corruption, and voter apathy. Both candidates have consolidated support but represent only a fraction of the electorate, with millions abstaining or spoiling ballots.
