Left-wing candidate Hitler Mussolini wins local vote in Peru
Hitler Mussolini Simeón Flores won by 25 votes in Queropalca, a district of just over 730 people in the Huánuco department, running for the centre-left Ahora Nación party. He is not Peru’s first elected Hitler.
A Peruvian man named Hitler Mussolini Simeón Flores won a local election in Queropalca, a district in northern Peru. Running for the centre-left Ahora Nación party, he secured 34.5% of the 663 valid votes, ousting his closest rival Gaspar Benilde Osorio Zambrano of the Popular Renewal Peru party by a narrow margin. The district, with an estimated population of 730, is part of the Huánuco department.
Simeón Flores also manages the Simeon Sac investment group. This victory comes after right-wing candidate Keiko Sofía Fujimori's win in the presidential election, marking another instance of a figure named Hitler winning in Peru. Hitler Alba, a member of the centre-right We Are Peru party, previously served as mayor of Yungar from 2011 to 2014.
