Peru 2026 Ballot Vetting Advances as 14 Slates Formalized and López Aliaga Challenge Ruled Inadmissible

Challenges and exclusions will be decided under a March 13 deadline set by the electoral tribunal.

Overview

  • Electoral records show 36 presidential formulas registered for 2026 alongside 1,712 legislative lists using the DECLARA+ digital system.
  • Current tallies list 14 formulas fully formalized, 12 exposed to citizen tacha challenges, eight admitted to proceed, and one case flagged with an active tacha.
  • The JEE Lima Centro 1 declared the tacha against Renovación Popular’s slate inadmissible for lack of the required fee and granted one business day to cure or face dismissal.
  • The JNE cites EleccIA tools and JEE oversight to review qualifications and resolve all appeals on exclusions and tachas by March 13, 2026.
  • High-profile entrants include Keiko Fujimori, still prosecuted in the Odebrecht-linked case after a partial TC annulment, and Vladimir Cerrón, convicted in the Wanka aerodrome case with an active international arrest order.
