Peru election chief resigns amid tally chaos and public distrust
Peru’s election chief Piero Corvetto resigned amid public anger over a chaotic April vote and slow tallying, saying the move was aimed at restoring confidence ahead of a planned June 7 runoff; authorities expect final results by May 15, with Keiko Fujimori leading and Roberto Sánchez and Rafael López Aliaga in close contention, while observers say there is no firm evidence of fraud and thousands of ballots remain under review.
