Peru JNJ nominates 12 for ONPE leadership, including two prior finalists

Peru's Junta Nacional de Justicia (JNJ) has nominated 12 candidates for the leadership of the ONPE electoral body, including Carlos Loyola Escajadillo, who failed to secure the role in July despite being the sole candidate, and José Pérez Duharte, who faces a 2020 resume-falsification accusation. The selection process is ongoing, with the JNJ expected to vote on a new head amid political scrutiny of electoral institutions.
