Heads or tails": In Peru, the results of the mayoral elections were decided by tossing a coin.
In the province of Conima in Peru, Ruben Quispe Capachana and Salomino of the Quispe artists received the same number of votes: 671 each, reports La Repubblica. Since even after counting all the voting protocols the winner was not determined, a coin was used to solve the problem. One of the members of the election committee threw it out in public - it came to mind. That's how Quisp was elected mayor.
According to the local law, as of 2026, tossing the coin is the uniform procedure used throughout the country in the event of a tie vote.
