After the former Supreme Judge Javier Villa Stein, presented an amparo action requesting to declare the second round of the presidential elections null, the lawyer Tirso Vargas pointed out that the electoral law is clear and an election can only be annulled when the votes are invalid or in white, exceed two-thirds of the number of valid votes.

He indicated that said request and all the legal actions that have been filed by Fuerza Popular, have the sole purpose of delaying the time for the National Elections Jury (JNE) to delay in proclaiming the presidential results, even though these have already been given, they are irreversible and give Pedro Castillo the winner.

Through Pachamama radio he explained that the electoral law is clear and it is very difficult to admit the amparo action presented by the former supreme judge, since no entity, person or body can question the work of the JNE.

“The Political Constitution of Peru establishes that the resolutions of the electoral bodies are irrevisable and irrevocable, no appeal actions or any other measure can be brought, not even from international entities, because that would violate the autonomy of a government,” he said.

In this context, he recommended that citizens wait calmly and responsibly for the proclamation of the presidential results, and called for reflection on the leader of Fuerza Popular, Keiko Fujimori, and her lawyers, so that they think about the country.
