"The presidential candidate for the Fuerza Popular party, Keiko Fujimori, arrived this Sunday at the coordination center for representatives located in the Lima district of Villa El Salvador, as part of the electoral day in which she is contesting the runoff against the leftist candidate Roberto Sanchez. During the activity, Fujimori was accompanied by Luis Dyer, national head of representatives for Fuerza Popular. The representatives are accredited by political parties to oversee the electoral process and safeguard their interests during voting and counting. Alongside Dyer, the candidate reviewed the coordination and monitoring tasks carried out by volunteers in charge of supervising polling stations and vote counting at various points in the country. The candidate was greeted by dozens of collaborators participating in the electoral organization tasks. Fujimori greeted those present, spoke with the volunteers, and handed out hot drinks to those who had been fulfilling their duties since early morning. "Our gratitude to all the volunteers who are participating today as representatives of our party. There are more than 95,000 people who are defending democracy," said the candidate. However, the official platform of the National Jury of Elections recorded a total of 15,105 people across the country. The operations center in Villa El Salvador will operate throughout the electoral day as a coordination and reception point for reports from various regions of the country. Fujimori, who is seeking the presidency for the fourth time, faces Roberto Sanchez in the second round, the candidate of the leftist coalition Juntos por el Peru and former Minister of Foreign Trade and Tourism. Electoral authorities plan to release the first preliminary results after the closing of polling stations, scheduled for 17:00 local time."
