Leftist candidate Pedro Castillo of the Free Peru Political Party will face off against far-right candidate Keiko Fujimori of the Popular Forest Party. All major polls have predicted a victory for Castillo. According to the latest opinion poll conducted by Ipsos Perú pollster, Castillo is leading the voter intention with 51% of the votes, while his opponent Keiko Fujimori of the far-right Popular Forest Party follows him with 49% of the votes. The Institute for Peruvian Studies Research Group carried out its voter intention survey giving Pedro Castillo 40.3% and Keiko Fujimori 38.3% of the votes. Castillo is a primary school teacher and union leader. He has expressed himself in favor of rewriting the country's constitution with the aim of giving the state more control and a leading role in the economy to compete with private companies. He has promised an anti-neoliberal economic model to address the crisis facing Peru. He has also promised to nationalize natural resources and strategic industries such as mining, oil, hydropower, gas, and communications. Meanwhile, Fujimori, the daughter of former dictator Alberto Fujimori, has expressed herself in support of preserving the current constitution which promotes a neoliberal capitalist economic model and deepens inequality. It was drafted during her father's dictatorship. Meanwhile, disconsent has been mounting against Fujimori. Peru witnessed a massive demonstration with close to 50,000 taking part against her candidacy on June 1st. With the slogan, Fujimori never again, now and forever, thousands of protesters carried photos of victims of massacres carried out during the presidency of Alberto Fujimori. Fujimori is serving a 25-year sentence for crimes against humanity, including his role in the massacres of Varios Altos and La Cantunta. Peru has been devastated by one of the world's worst coronavirus outbreaks, mounting poverty and unemployment, as well as corruption in recent months. Over 10,000 Peruvians who had lost their livelihoods during the COVID-19 pandemic had sought refuge in temporary camps set up on abandoned land in the Lomo de Corvina area and the Villa del Salvalo district, situated on the outskirts of the capital Lima. On April 28, the Peruvian national police violently evicted the hundreds of homeless families living in temporary camps. 70% of Peru's workforce is employed in the informal sector and depends on daily income to survive. Decades of neoliberal policies and chronic underfunding of the public sectors have deepened social inequality in Peru. Last year, November 2020, the country saw widespread protests demanding systemic change and against corruption. One of the key demands was precisely for a new inclusive constitution to replace the current one. Within the candidacy and project of Pedro Castillo and the Free Peru Party, many of the historically marginalized sectors are finding newfound hope and inspiration. Despite a vicious campaign of attacks and fake news against Castillo, his message continues to ring true for millions of Peruvians.
