Williams Ticket Cleared for Peru 2026 as Electoral Juries Bar Aragón and Callao Senate Slate

Appeals now move to the national elections tribunal for final review.

Overview

  • Lima Centro 1’s special electoral jury formally inscribed Avanza País’s presidential formula led by José Williams with Fernán Altuve and Adriana Tudela as running mates.
  • The inscription followed a rejected challenge to the Williams slate that the jury deemed final, clearing the way for registration.
  • Cusco’s special jury declared the candidacy of Congressman Luis Aragón improcedent, citing the absence of a valid direct-designation act and an authorization it deemed improperly issued.
  • Avanza País appealed the Cusco ruling, arguing the case stems from a candidate replacement after a resignation and calling the documentation issue a fixable material error to be weighed by the JNE.
  • Callao’s special jury rejected Renovación Popular’s Senate list for presenting a mixed primary and direct designation that violated internal democracy rules and missed replacement deadlines, leaving Patricia Chirinos and Félix Morales off the ballot.
