La derecha logra una amplia victoria electoral en Chile y comandará el proyecto de la nueva Constitución

Chile recently underwent a historic election, where voters chose the members of a constitutional assembly who will work to draft a new constitution. The significance of this election is that the current constitution was written during the regime of dictator Augusto Pinochet and its critics say it grants too much power to businesses. In the recent election, conservative and center-right parties dominated the vote, securing almost 60% of the seats. This marks a shift to a more conservative political landscape in the country. This electoral result was a major setback for leftist and center-left parties, who had hoped to have a more prominent role in the constitutional drafting process. The election outcome has led to concerns among progressive groups about how the new constitution will reflect the interests of Chile’s diverse population. Nevertheless, the results of the election promise to be a significant factor in shaping Chile’s politics in the years to come. This article highlights the significant political change that has occurred in Chile and how it could impact the future of the country.
