According to current regulations, at each polling board ballot sheets are destroyed immediately after the tally. A subsequent audit or re-examination, especially in cases of
challenges and litigation, is not possible under such conditions. Internationally accepted practice is that such records are usually kept for a period of 6 months or more. It is
suggested that the Peruvian system provide for the ballot packages to be stored for some time, so that a recount can be made in cases of serious challenges.
