Peru election extended after chaos

Thousands of Peruvians returned to the polls on Monday after their ballots never arrived at voting centers on Sunday.

The election, held amid a surge in violent crime and corruption, has been marred by technical problems and allegations of fraud.

Electoral authorities decided on the special second day of voting to ensure those in affected precincts could cast their ballots.

The delay has heightened political tension in a country that has seen ten presidents in ten years and is currently grappling with deep social divisions.
