Invalid votes[edit]

The amount of invalid votes is huge. With 3 138 638 of them, it make 17.09% of the total of votes, more than any party. Do we know what happened? Was there maybe a lot of protest votes with sentences written on them? It seem to me it could be mentioned on the page.--Aréat (talk) 06:19, 16 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Aréat: Peru does tend to have a lot of invalid votes. Looking at previous elections, there were over 3 million invalid/blank votes in the first round of the presidential election in 2016 (the congressional total is missing, but I suspect would be even higher vote given the respective totals) and 3.8 million in the congressional elections in 2006.

Thanks for the context. I find it quite appaling, but if such a number of invalid votes is the normal in Peru, I guess there's nothing to see here.--Aréat (talk) 05:42, 17 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
