General elections are scheduled to be held in Peru on 12 April 2026,[1] with proposals to bring them forward to 2023 or 2024 due to the 2022–2023 Peruvian protests rejected.[2][3][4] The presidential elections will determine the president and the vice presidents, while the congressional elections will determine the composition of the Congress of Peru, which will return to being a bicameral legislature with a 60-seat Senate and 130-seat Chamber of Deputies.
A record of 34 registered candidates entered the presidential race by December 2025.[5] The last president, Dina Boluarte was removed from office in October 2025 and impeached by the Peruvian Congress. José Jerí is her successor.[6]
Electoral system
The president is elected using the two-round system.[7] The first round voting allows eligible voters to vote for any viable presidential candidate.[7] The top two candidates who receive a plurality of the vote proceed to the run-off election.[7] The winner of the run-off election and the presidential election is the candidate who receives a plurality of the popular vote.[7][8] However, if in the first round the candidate who is in the first place already gets more than 50% of the popular vote, that candidate will automatically win the election and a run-off election will no longer be needed.[8]
The 130 members of the Chamber of Deputies are elected in 27 multi-member constituencies using open list proportional representation.[9] To enter Congress, parties must either cross the 5% electoral threshold at the national level, or win at least seven seats in one constituency. Seats are allocated using the D'Hondt method.[10][11]
The 60 senators are elected dividing them in two separate elections, with 30 elected nationwide by proportional representation and 30 in the 27 Chamber constituencies (Lima has four sets, the others one).[12]
Peru has five seats in the Andean Parliament, which are elected using a common constituency by open list proportional representation.[13]
Background
Peru’s 2026 general election is being held after a prolonged period of political instability that began well before the current electoral cycle and intensified following the 2021 election of Pedro Castillo. In December 2022, Castillo attempted to dissolve Congress and rule by decree; the move was rejected by state institutions and he was removed from office and arrested, triggering nationwide unrest and a severe governance crisis.[14]
Castillo’s vice president, Dina Boluarte, assumed the presidency amid the 2022–2023 protests and sustained demands for early elections. Although proposals were repeatedly introduced to bring forward the scheduled 2026 vote, they were rejected by Congress. In October 2025, Boluarte was removed from office by Congress on “moral incapacity” grounds amid mounting public anger over insecurity and corruption allegations, and President of Congress, José Jerí succeeded her as president for the remainder of the constitutional term leading into the 2026 elections.[15] Jerí became Peru's seventh president in nine years.[16]
The campaign has taken shape amid heightened public concern over citizen security and organized crime, persistent distrust in political institutions, and ongoing debates about corruption and economic governance.[17]
