Peruvian anti-corruption police raided the headquarters of the national electoral authority (ONPE) on Sunday after a logistics failure left 15 polling stations in Lima unable to open, denying more than 60,000 voters the chance to cast ballots. Authorities announced polling hours would be extended by one hour to compensate, while protesters gathered outside the ONPE building demanding the resignation of its chief, Piero Corvetto. The incident underscores deep public distrust in Peru's institutions, with more than 90% of citizens expressing little or no confidence in them — a sentiment sharpened by a record field of 35 presidential candidates, a surge in violent crime, and a political class beset by corruption scandals that have seen eight presidents since 2016, four of whom are now imprisoned.
