Keiko Fujimori and Roberto Sánchez addressed thousands of supporters in the capital, presenting their proposals and seeking to persuade undecided voters before the start of the electoral silence period.
Both campaign events took place under regulations established by Peru’s National Jury of Elections (JNE). Under electoral law, Thursday was the final day for political campaigning, and no further political gatherings are permitted before voting begins.

The runoff election will be held nationwide on Sunday, following the first round of voting on April 12, which left Fujimori and Sánchez as the two remaining contenders for the presidency.
Fujimori, leader of the Popular Force party, represents the political right and has focused her campaign on promises of restoring order amid rising crime rates across the country.
Sánchez, the candidate of Together for Peru, has positioned himself as the left-wing alternative. His campaign has aimed to consolidate support among voters opposed to Fujimorismo, the political movement associated with former President Alberto Fujimori since 1990.
More than 26 million Peruvians are expected to cast their ballots on Sunday to choose the country’s next head of state, bringing the current electoral process to its final stage.
