Peru will enact a nationwide “dry law” restricting alcohol sales in the days leading up to and including its presidential runoff election. The ban aims to maintain public order and prevent potential violence during the voting process. While the restriction is national, individual regional and local governments have the authority to modify the specific hours of enforcement within their jurisdictions. The measure intends to ensure a peaceful and secure electoral environment. Details regarding specific timings vary by location, with some areas extending the ban’s duration. This is a common practice in Peru during elections to mitigate potential disruptions. Authorities hope the ban will contribute to a fair and transparent election.
