Peru Presidential Elections Too Close to Call

Two candidates vying for Peru's presidency were still neck and neck Monday as vote counts trickled in for the runoff election. 

With over 95% of the vote counted, socialist Pedro Castillo led conservative rival Keiko Fujimori by less than one percentage point, according to a Reuters tally.  Castillo, an outsider candidate, barely gained a lead against his rival overnight as votes came in from rural areas of the country.  Lima's stock market plunged, and the national currency dropped to a record low as uncertainty over the vote continued Monday.
