APRA nominee

Nidia Vílchez

On 29 November 2020, members of the Peruvian Aprista Party chose a presidential ticket for the 2021 presidential election.

The party elected former cabinet minister Nidia Vílchez as the presidential nominee, defeating by a large margin the two other candidates, alongside her running mates Iván Hidalgo, former deputy minister of Social Development, and Olga Cribilleros, former member of Congress from La Libertad.

Subsequently, the party withdrew her nomination once registered as a candidate at the National Jury of Elections after the party was denied registering their congressional candidates past the deadline.
