LIMA, April 14 (Reuters) - Conservative candidate Keiko Fujimori will advance to a presidential run-off in Peru as she held 16.9% of the votes with 74% of votes counted, the official election tally showed on Tuesday.

Right-wing former Lima mayor, Rafael Lopez Aliaga, and center-left candidate Jorge Nieto are vying for second place with about 13% and 12% of the votes respectively, as the count by Peru’s electoral body, ONPE, moved into a third day.
