Avanza País Registers Phillip Butters as Sole Presidential Precandidate, Moves to Expel César Combina

Party leaders cite internal disloyalty plus alleged public deception, given the ex-lawmaker faces a constitutional complaint for illicit enrichment.

Overview

  • Resolution No. 3445-2025/SNO confirms only one presidential ticket is registered, led by Phillip Butters with Fernán Altuve and Karol Paredes as running mates.
  • The resolution instructs the party’s legal team to begin an expulsion process against César Combina for “acciones infraternas” and for allegedly trying to mislead the public.
  • Avanza País says it will file complaints with the National Police and the Public Ministry to investigate purported external coordination tied to Combina.
  • The party reports that only the Butters formula is recorded with the JNE for the primary, while Combina—who had announced his own bid—rejects the move on X and, according to sources, may appeal.
  • Combina’s affiliation was suspended in February over an ongoing case that includes a Fiscalía denuncia constitucional alleging illicit enrichment, citing S/472,868.67 in unexplained assets and S/948,063 in deposits of unknown origin.
