He Peruvian Aprista Party (APRA) formulated his defense before the Special Electoral Jury (JEE) Lima Oeste 3 regarding the observations raised against his list of candidates for Metropolitan Lima for a seat in the Chamber of Deputies in the general elections of April 2026.
Days ago, through a notarized letter, the president of the Apra Political Commission, Mauricio Mulder; Belén García, institutional general secretary; and Benigno Chirinos, political general secretary, officiated at the JEE requesting that the result of the primary elections in which their partner Enrique Valderrama was elected presidential candidate be respected.
The Aprista Party, meanwhile, has responded by ensuring that the formation of its lists strictly complies with what is established by the Law of Political Organizations.
Along these lines, he maintains that the formation of the lists was carried out respecting “fully the principles of parity and alternation required for the current electoral processes”, and adds that “the distribution of men and women on the list guarantees the equitable representation stipulated in the political reform norms that govern the formation of the legislative chambers.”
In addition, it specifies that the results of the primary elections do not establish in an immutable manner the definitive location of each candidate, which is why adjustments are allowed under party criteria permitted by law.
On the other hand, APRA assured that the appointments made by the leadership directly comply with the legal percentage allowed by the electoral regulations, and stressed that the entire process in general was carried out in a transparent manner.
After this procedure, it is now time for the Special Electoral Jury (JEE) Lima Oeste 3 to evaluate these arguments and issue a resolution determining whether it considers that the observations have been acquitted or not.
