Fuerza Popular Ticket Becomes First Officially Inscribed as Peru’s Electoral Tribunals Tighten Scrutiny

A rapid vetting wave is triggering two-day deadlines that leave several high-profile bids pending review.

Overview

  • JEE Lima Centro 1 formally inscribed Fuerza Popular’s presidential slate of Keiko Fujimori, Luis Galarreta and Miguel Torres after the tacha period closed without objections, making it the first ticket officially registered.
  • JEE Lima Centro 2 declared inadmissible parts of Juntos por el Perú’s invited Senate list, citing filing inconsistencies for José Carmen Castillo, Isaac Humala and César Copa, and set a two-day window to correct them.
  • JEE Trujillo ruled José Murgia’s Senate bid improcedente for not meeting the “Peruvian by birth” requirement based on a birth record in Bolivia, while Olga Cribilleros was flagged as inadmissible with 48 hours to cure omissions.
  • An electoral challenge was filed against Perú Primero’s presidential hopeful Mario Vizcarra over a 2005 peculado conviction under Law 30717, which the JEE must resolve with potential appeal to the JNE.
  • Separately, JEE Lima Centro 1 found the Sí Creo presidential slate inadmissible for missing required affidavits, as the JNE reports 36 presidential formulas and more than 1,700 lists registered to date.
