Votes being counted in runoff election to choose Peru's ninth leader in 10 years
Peru's presidential runoff election between Keiko Fujimori and Roberto Sánchez remains undecided as votes are slowly tallied. Fujimori holds a modest lead with 52.6% of counted votes, while crime concerns dominate voter priorities. Both candidates face associations with controversial political figures, and voter turnout appeared lower than in the previous election.
