JNE to Hear Appeal on López Aliaga Challenge Within Three Days as APRA Senate List Faces Tachas

Regional officials begin compliance checks following the clearance of 223 candidacies in Junín.

Overview

  • JEE Lima Centro 1 admitted an appeal and sent the tacha against Rafael López Aliaga to the National Elections Jury, which must hold a public hearing and issue a final decision within three calendar days of receiving the file.
  • The challenge argues Renovación Popular violated internal democracy rules in selecting López Aliaga and seeks to nullify that internal process and exclude all candidate lists derived from it.
  • Separate filings before JEE Lima Centro 2 contest APRA’s Senate slate and three candidates, alleging departures from primary results and improper designations by the party’s Political Commission.
  • One filing also alleges José Pimentel Aliaga is both APRA’s principal legal representative and a candidate, a combination the law prohibits.
  • In Junín, the JEE in Huancayo confirmed 223 habilitated candidates—171 for the Chamber of Deputies and 52 for the Senate—while opening detailed reviews of biographies, financing, propaganda, and gift bans after a tacha period with no objections.
