Overview
- César Acuña told supporters in San Juan de Lurigancho that his camp will not allow Rafael López Aliaga to become president, calling him the worst mayor of Lima.
- Recent Ipsos polling cited by local media places López Aliaga narrowly in first place with roughly 10% support in a crowded field.
- Analysts describe a fractured electorate with blank or null preferences near 30%, leaving small shifts in support potentially decisive.
- Public disapproval remains high for both figures, with López Aliaga’s mayoral administration registering about 69.5% rejection and surveys showing roughly 80% distrust toward Acuña in La Libertad.
- Investigative reporting based on ONPE records indicates the Universidad César Vallejo, linked to Acuña, provided loans and financing to APP of about S/20 million.
