Yeah, I've kinda followed this on and off since she announced her candidacy, though she wasn't polling that damn well when I last looked.
Shit. And her rival. Humala, is some Chavismo douchenozzle as well, IIRC. Though to be fair, death squads are not something Chavez is noted for, unlike Fujimori. But it means she likely has international muscle backing her campaign.
I bet they're cracking open the champagne at DINCOTE already. Especially since the last time a Fujimori was in power, Humala led an attempted rebellion against him.

QuoteThe two candidates are at opposite ends of the political spectrum - a fact that has worried some Peruvians who say they will not vote for either of them.
Opinion polls indicate that the outcome is too close to call.
It's a shame Alan Garcia cannot run again. From the sound of it, he would probably win.
