According to a survey run by El Comercio, Keiko Fujimori has dropped to second place in voting intention polls, while Lima Mayor Luis Castañeda Lossio has
risen to first place.
The poll was conducted by Ipsos Apoyo Marketing Company, and shows Castaneda winning 21% of expected votes, compared with 20% for Keiko Fujimori, a lawmaker and daughter of now-jailed former President Alberto Fujimori.
The poll, which interviewed 1,000 people, also shows that the preferences for the nationalist leader Ollanta Humala have dropped to third place, with 13%, followed by former President Alejandro Toledo with 10% and Lourdes Flores with 9%.
Castaneda, a lawyer, carried out an unsuccessful bid for president in 2000 before winning the post of mayor of Peru's capital in 2002.
In previous elections, Flores and Castaneda have both been members of the same center-right political alliance.
