Overview
- The National Jury of Elections confirmed 36 presidential formulas registered after the Dec. 23 deadline, opening technical oversight and the public challenges (tachas) period ahead of the April 12, 2026 vote.
- Following a critical technical opinion from the JNE, the ONPE suspended use of internet/digital voting for 2026, citing unresolved security and accessibility issues and assuring affected registrants they can vote in person.
- ONPE formalized the ballot via Resolution 000199-2025-JN/ONPE: a five‑column design for president/vice presidents, national and regional senators, deputies and the Andean Parliament, with barcodes and color security tramas, plus special formats for armed forces/police and a potential June 7 runoff.
- The newly created JEE Lima Centro 2, dedicated to Peruvians abroad, declared Fuerza Popular’s overseas list inadmissible pending proof that direct designations stay within the 20% legal cap, granting a two‑day window to remedy.
- JEE Lima Centro 1 deemed Avanza País’s ticket inadmissible over missing notarized resignations and a defect in José Williams’ consent form, and the party filed documents to cure the observations within the allowed period.
