Something is Rotten in the Elections of Peru Over two weeks ago, on April 12th Peruvians went to vote to elect a new President. The election has been plagued by suspicious issues like lost polling records, polling stations that opened so late hardly anyone could vote and many more. However, the most serious one is the forensic analysis done recently by a Data Scientist who calls himself Luigi Pavam. Mr. Pavam went into a public API from the organization that managed the whole election called ONPE, and downloaded the data of every single polling station, about 93% of the total and proceeded to do a deep data analysis looking for signs of possible fraud. He found that the special polling stations or “Mesas Especiales” were plagued with issues, and proceeded to run 5 forensic tests to detect possible fraud. His conclusion was that the election data shows a very suspicious pattern that suggests there is a very sophisticated fraud operation happening in Peru’s elections. His report is 17 pages of dry analysis, and to make it easy for anyone to understand what he found I decided to do an explainer video. I encourage anyone with an interest in Peru’s economy, and people to watch it. This news I share with you is well known by much people in Peru now, and there are efforts to fix what happened. Surprisingly the election authorities have not done anything to audit the data, and remove ONPE from the process, worse it seems the election authority is about to rubber-stamp what looks like a fraud. One that has the potential to put a radical left politician Mr. Roberto Sanchez in power, because the election runoff between Ms. Keiko Fujimori and Mr. Sanchez will most likely be manipulated again, placing again Mr. Sanchez as the surprise winner, and therefore President of Peru. However, it is not too late yet. As the video explains there are several ways to prevent this outcome, and to elect the two correct winners of the first election to compete with each other in June. All seems to indicate that the rightful second place winner of the first round election was Mr. Rafael Lopez Aliaga, not Mr. Sanchez, unlike Sanchez, Mr. Aliaga is pro-business, pro-democracy, pro-freedom and friendly with America and the Trump Administration.
