The Peru election crisis has escalated after supporters of far-right candidate Rafael López Aliaga protested against the April 12 presidential election results, which showed him losing to left-wing candidate Roberto Sánchez by roughly 13,000 votes. Despite presenting no evidence of systematic fraud, Lópe Aliaga has called on supporters to commit "insurgency," demanded an annulment of the election, offered 20,000 soles (US$5,800) to electoral workers who provide fraud evidence, and called the ONPE chief a criminal. The protests have already caused a 4.16% drop on the Lima stock exchange and sent the sol to its worst day in six weeks. The JNE president, Roberto Burneo, acknowledged logistical irregularities in election organization but not manipulation of votes. The police have been ordered to increase security at airports, borders, and checkpoints to prevent a potential flight by ONPE Chief Piero Corvetto. This strategy aims to delegitimize the process regardless of the outcome of the June 7 runoff.
