Peru's presidential candidates were headed for a photo finish in Sunday's election, exit polls showed at the close of voting.
Surveys by pollsters Ipsos and Gfk gave a slight lead to ex-Wall Street banker Pedro Pablo Kuczynski.
A poll by CPI put Keiko Fujimori, daughter of a jailed former president, slightly ahead.
In the Ipsos survey, Kuczynski had 50.4 percent of the vote to 49.6 percent for Fujimori.
GfK gave 51.2 percent to Kuczynski and 48.8 percent to Fujimori.
CPI had Fujimori in the lead on 51.1 percent with 48.9 for Kuczynski.
Whichever candidate eventually clinches a lead, however small, will win the vote, which is a runoff after a close first round on April 10.
First official results were expected around 0200 GMT on Monday.
Both candidates are right-leaning, US-educated politicians who have vowed to fight crime and create jobs in the nation of 31 million people.
Keiko Fujimori's father Alberto is in jail for corruption and the slaughter of alleged terrorists in the 1990s.
