WHY WILL THERE BE A SECOND ROUND IN THE REGIONAL ELECTIONS?

In a total of nine regions of the country, the second round will take place, because -in the elections on October 2, 2022- none of the candidates reached 30% of the valid votes to be elected to the position of regional governor.

In this case, in accordance with the Regional Elections Law (Law 27683), the two formulas with the highest number of votes from each region go to ballot. Elections must be held within 30 calendar days following the proclamation of the official counts. The list of directors is not going to the second round.
