Peru election dispute deepens

Peru election dispute deepens

With 77% of ballots tallied, official results show Keiko Fujimori leading the count, but the slow process has fueled suspicions of rigging.

Protesters claim that irregularities in the ballot count have undermined the democratic process, though no evidence of widespread fraud has been presented.

The Electoral Tribunal is facing intense pressure to address the complaints as the country heads toward a potential runoff in June.

The dispute has deepened political divisions in Peru, with international observers calling for transparency and calm.
