Union for Peru
Encyclopedia : U : UN : UNI : Union for Peru
Union for Peru (Spanish: Unión por el Perú) was orginally a liberal or centrist political party in Peru. At the legislative elections held on 8 April 2001, the party won 4.1% of the popular vote and 6 out of 120 seats in the Congress of the Republic.
In the 2006 Peruvian national election, Union for Peru aligned itself with the Peruvian Nationalist Party and endorsed Ollanta Humala, who faced Alan García in the presidential runoff election. Congressional results are still partial, but they indicate a strong showing by the party, probably getting the largest number of seats (though still short of an absolute majority). In the 2006 Peruvian national election the alliance won with 21.2 % 45 out of 120 Members of Congress.
