Peru Election Board Rejects Appeals Over 2,398 Voting Tables, Clearing Path to Certification

Summary
Peru’s JNE rejected Juntos por el Perú appeals to annul 1,751 voting tables in Lima and 647 in the United States, preserving ballots that could have affected the tight presidential runoff.
Those challenges had already been dismissed by lower electoral authorities over procedural flaws, including unpaid electoral fees, and the JNE ruling now removes a major legal obstacle.
The decision strengthens the path toward certifying the Keiko Fujimori-Roberto Sánchez result as ONPE nears completion of the official count and international votes remain part of the final tally.
Market pricing cited in the report showed confidence in certification by July 15 rising to 68.5%, though any fresh legal challenges or new annulment requests could still affect the timeline.
