Tahuichi advierte que los resultados del censo podrían no aplicarse a la distribución de escaños

The Supreme Electoral Tribunal warns that delayed census data could prevent the redistribution of parliamentary seats for the 2025 elections. Without timely results from the National Institute of Statistics, the new demographic distribution cannot be implemented, forcing the use of outdated electoral rolls. Consequently, departments gaining population may lose legislative representation while others gain, unless the legislature acts swiftly. This potential shift in power highlights the critical link between accurate demographic data and political representation, a core principle in open data transparency. The relevance to open data lies in the necessity for timely, accessible statistical information to ensure fair electoral processes. Reliable public data enables democratic adaptation to demographic changes, ensuring that representation reflects the actual population distribution rather than historical assumptions.
