Credit: Reuters/Enrique Castro-Mendivil LIMA | Sun May 15, 2011 9:14am EDT LIMA (Reuters) - Right-wing lawmaker Keiko Fujimori's lead over leftist Ollanta Humala appears to be growing ahead of Peru's June 5 presidential run-off, polls by survey firms Ipsos and CPI showed on Sunday. The nationwide Ipsos poll, published in newspaper El Comercio, showed Fujimori getting 51.1 percent of the vote and Humala with 48.9 percent when blank and null ballots were excluded in a voting simulation organized by pollsters. The Ipsos survey polled 2,005 people May 7-13 and has a 2.2 point margin of error. A poll by CPI published on the website of RPP radio, said Fujimori had a 5.8 point lead over Humala, with 52.9 percent of votes to Humala's 47.1 percent. It polled 4,848 people and has a margin of error of 2.2 points. Four polls in the past week have shown Fujimori, the daughter of jailed former President Alberto Fujimori, ahead of Humala, though in most cases her lead has been within the margin of error. A fifth of voters are undecided or plan to abstain in the tight race that has caused volatility in the local stock and currency market and will likely make the final outcome of the election difficult to predict. Both candidates appeal to poorer voters, though Fujimori, a lawmaker, has support from the business community, which is eager to see a decade-long economic boom continue and worries Humala might roll back years of free-market reforms. The elder Fujimori opened the economy and slayed hyperinflation, but his government collapsed in 2000 in a cloud of corruption and human rights scandals stemming from his crackdown on insurgents. Humala, a former army officer who led a short-lived revolt against Fujimori's father, campaigns as a moderate leftist but he spooks investors with a policy platform that includes an interventionist agenda. Humala says his policies would strengthen a weak state to make sure the benefits of economic growth reach all Peruvians, not just local elites or foreign firms. A third of Peruvians still live in poverty. Peruvian markets plunged after Humala won the first-round vote on April 10 but have since partly recovered as investors bet on a Fujimori victory. Before the latest gains, the market value of Peru's stock index plunged by about $18 billion in less than three weeks, according to the Maximixe brokerage.
