Elections Presidential Elections 2001 Presidential Elections After the dismissal of Alberto Fujimori as president of the Republic of Peru and after Valentín Paniagua assumed the position of transitional President, he called general elections for April 8, 2001. In these new elections, the Moralizing Independent Front presented, for the first time, the candidacy of Fernando Olivera Vega for the presidency of the Republic of Peru. Accompanying him on the presidential ticket were Ricardo Belmont, as First Vice President, and Eduardo Iriarte, as Second Vice President. Soon, the candidacy of Fernando Olivera became of central importance, since, during the 15 years he was in parliament in opposition (1985-2000), the issue of public integrity and the fight against corruption characterized his public work, becoming an investigator of well known cases of corruption, during the governments of Garcia and Fujimori, which earned him sympathy with a large sector of the electorate. The results arrived on April 8, 2001 and placed Olivera in fifth place, with 9.85% of the vote. Many strategic errors were identified with the campaign during the final stretch. For example, many claimed that he attempted to elevate himself above the rest of the contenders by directing all criticisms against Alejandro Toledo, the leader in the polls and eventual winner, thus detracting from his case against, and the resultant downfall of Fujimori. The two candidates that proceeded to the second round were Alejandro Toledo, with the Party and Alan García, of APRA. During the campaign, the successive errors of Toledo and his family and campaign led him to lose popularity in a very short time. However, Toledo prevailed over his rivals with 53% of the valid votes, thanks, in part, to the support of Ferando Olivera. 2006 Presidential
