VOICED : Peru queda con el Congreso atomizado y el fujimorismo en caida libre

The extraordinary legislative elections in Peru resulted in a fragmented congress and a significant decline for the Fujimorismo party. The vote counting was slow, with only regional results being released. Projections indicated that the new congress would consist of eight parties, none securing more than 10% of the votes. Acción Popular emerged as the leading party, while the fundamentalist evangelical group FREPAP made a surprising return to parliament. The Fujimorismo party, Fuerza Popular, experienced its worst electoral performance since 2001.
