Peru’s Election Court Opens Two-Month Audit of ONPE’s Digital Voting System for April 2026

The review will decide if remote internet voting can be deployed for the populations defined by Law 32270.

Overview

  • The JNE began examining ONPE’s Solución Tecnológica del Voto Digital on Oct. 16, with the audit scheduled to end on Dec. 16.
  • Officials plan to complete an internal report on Dec. 18 and send it to ONPE on Dec. 19 to guide any deployment decision.
  • ONPE delivered a full technical package to the JNE, including software, system architecture, quality-control results and cybersecurity test documentation.
  • Separately, ONPE selected U.S.-based CGTS Corp for an external audit, with contracting underway and initial results expected by late December.
  • Authorities say any audit observations must be resolved before use, noting concerns about pilot scale and prerequisites such as an electronic DNI for voters.
