TL;DR Summary
Peruvian voters head to the polls to try to escape a decade of instability, facing a record 35 presidential candidates and a long ballot as crime and corruption loom large; Keiko Fujimori leads polls but no candidate is above 15%, making a runoff likely and illustrating a crowded, volatile field that includes a comedian-turned-candidate, a hard-right former Lima mayor, and other outsiders.
