Surveillance Video Allegedly Shows Ballot Stuffing in Puno Bar Association Election Dispute

Petitions to annul the vote remain unresolved, putting the electoral committee’s handling of table 3 under fresh scrutiny.

Overview

  • The new footage, reported by Diario Jornada, purportedly shows table 3 officials inserting multiple ballots into the box during the ICAP vote.
  • Lists 3 and 4 have formally sought annulment, citing a 113-ballot discrepancy at table 3 where 406 votes were recorded against 293 registered voters.
  • List 3 says it will not participate in any rerun, stating it seeks a fresh election to ensure transparency rather than being declared the winner.
  • Declared winner Ángel Huanca of List 2, leading by nine votes, says he would support a new election only if a formal resolution verifies concrete anomalies.
  • The electoral committee faces demands to release records after its president said ballot envelopes from table 3 were missing, and a police complaint alleges crimes against public faith and generic falsity.
