On Sunday, April 10, 2011, a general election to elect the 94th President of Perú was held. Since no one candidate received over 50% of the vote, a runoff election between the two candidates receiving the most votes (Keiko Fujimori and Ollanta Humala) will be held on Sunday, June 5, 2011.
Both candidates come with a lot of baggage and are political unknowns. Here is a link to an article in The Miami Herald that will help provide a general overview of the candidates and the uncertainty surrounding them.
Brenda Paredes has asked for prayers for this election, that the best candidate to lead Perú for the next five years will be elected.
Thanks.
Randy
