Air for Latin American progressivism</p> The resounding victory of Last Database Gabriel Boric over José Antonio Kast (extreme right) confirms at the polls —once again— the power of the “Chilean blowout” that crossed the entire Last Database society transversally. And, it must also be said, it reveals an electoral system that looked impeccable. Around eight o'clock at night (local time) the results Last Database were known and the loser accepted his defeat. Chile seemed to return to its "normality": that of the electoral victories of forces in favor of social transformations in a progressive sense.

Without being mistaken, the media Last Database define the election as historic. And it is. The triumph of Approve Dignidad, a name born from the previous political battle (the one that managed to set up the Constitutional Convention), bears inscribed the promise of change. The parties that led the post-Pinochet democratic transition Last Database were left out of the presidential race (although they resisted in the elections for deputies and senators). Boric, the left-wing candidate, swept 60% in the Metropolitan Region and, hand in hand with Izkia Siches, the young ex-president of the Medical Last Database Association, one of his best signings for.

The second round Last Database managed to improve his results in the regions and got almost 56% in the national election. In the first round, the center-left was overwhelmed from the left by Approve Dignidad (Broad Front and Communist Party) and the center-right was electorally shipwrecked after a second government of Sebastián Piñera that never found a course and ended Last Database up supporting, almost unconditionally, a candidate that vindicated Augusto Pinochet (with the exception of his human rights policy —sic—). But this does not mean that, as many international media headlined, the Last Database Chilean elections faced "two extremes." On the right flank, in effect, one can speak of a winger. It was the paradox of this election: Kast's "pinochetism" —along with her.
