has issued accreditations to 150 observers from international organizations to verify —both in Peru and abroad— the development, probity, and transparency of the presidential runoff election scheduled for June 6.
These observers come from Argentina, Colombia, Paraguay, Uruguay, Ecuador, the United States, Mexico, Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, Panama, as well as Spain and Switzerland.
In addition, the
OAS has more than 200 information relays, whose main function is to assist in the observation carried out by the organization's electoral observation mission.
These acts are the installation of voting tables; conditioning of voting booths; verification carried out by polling station members on the conformity of ballots, the amphorae and any other electoral material; development of the voting day; scrutiny and counting, among others.
The Ibero-American Association of Jurists and the Mercosur Parliament's Democracy Observatory will deploy five participants each, while the European Union delegation in Peru will send three members.
All international electoral bodies and organizations will make it possible to report to the national and international community on the fairness of the election and the unquestionable results.
For the sake of transparency, at the request of the
JNE, international delegations are empowered to observe the installation of voting tables and the operation of voting booths, as well as the scrutiny and counting of votes, among other activities, during the Election Day.
As is known, Keiko Fujimori (Fuerza Popular) will face Pedro Castillo (Peru Libre) in the presidential runoff election on June 6.
