Peru's Apathetic Presidential Election
Frontrunners like Keiko Fujimori have focused their campaigns on security and the expulsion of migrants, but polls suggest that at least 20% of the electorate remains undecided.
Many rural communities report that no candidates have visited them, highlighting a disconnect between the capital and the rest of the country.
The lack of concrete plans to tackle illegal mining and environmental crises has also been a major point of criticism from experts.
The outcome of the vote is uncertain, with many fearing that another fractured parliament will lead to further political instability.
