Within the country, in the regions of Ayacucho, Cusco, Loreto, Madre Dios and Ucayali, there are still votes to be counted. In the others, the count has been completed, although the count is not 100%, because part of the ballots will be sent to the Electoral Court.
In total, considering the votes cast in Peru and abroad, 2.37% of the votes are still pending counting.
The electoral authority reported that the release of the final result could take days. Voting in Peru is done with paper ballots. The country has 27.33 million voters eligible to vote.

Dispute for leadership
Second round voting ended in Peru at 5pm on Sunday (7) - local time. At around 10pm, ONPE released the first official data from the count: Keiko Fujimori came out on top, five percentage points ahead of Roberto Sánchez.
The difference between the two decreased as the investigation progressed. At around 7am on Monday (8) Keiko had less than a point advantage over Sánchez.
At 1:07 pm, local time, the Juntos pelo Peru candidate overtook Keiko. Since then, Sánchez has remained at the forefront. The advantage, however, is less than one point.

Profile of candidates
Keiko Fujimori is running for the Força Popular party, a party he founded in 2008 to lead the Fujimorist movement. Daughter of former president Alberto Fujimori, the candidate is running for president for the fourth time, having been defeated in the second round in the 2011, 2016 and 2021 elections.
In the first round vote in 2026, Keiko obtained 17.2% of the valid votes.
Deputy Roberto Sánchez, from Together for Peru, reached the second round after obtaining 12% of the votes in the first round.
Sánchez's support base is mostly identified in rural areas and areas far from urban regions.
History and electoral context
The 2026 elections registered a record 35 presidential candidates in the first round. The process takes place in a scenario in which Peru has registered 9 presidents in 10 years, with constitutional mandates lasting five years.
Survey data indicates that 90% of Peruvians express little or no confidence in the government and the National Congress.
In addition, only 10% of Peruvians claim to be satisfied with democracy in the country, a situation that researchers classify as "chronic distrust".
