Pedro Castillo, a schoolteacher and workers' union leader, was the most voted candidate in the Peruvian general presidential elections on April 11, 2021. As of April 23, when 99.6 percent of votes had been tallied, Castillo received around 19 percent of valid votes cast. Keiko Fujimori was the second most voted presidential candidate, with over 13 percent.
Since none of the presidential candidates obtained more than half of the valid votes, a runoff election will be held on June 6, 2021 to elect the new Peruvian president among the two most voted candidates in the first election round. The voting participation rate on the general presidential elections in Peru stood above 70 percent.
