Early returns gave Ollanta Humala roughly a 52% lead over Keiko Fujimori's 47%, but overseas votes could factor and a lengthy recount is possible. Humala led a 2000 revolt against the elder Fujimori, who was credited with Peru's economic growth but eventually convicted of corruption. Humala has tied Keiko Fujimori, just 36 years old, to her father's government, but has had to downplay his own radical past. Read These Next A family hike took a tragic turn in Arkansas on Saturday.
