VOICED : Candidatas votan en Chile

Michelle Bachelet, the socialist ex-president, is the favorite to win the elections, aiming for a first-round victory by securing over 50% of the votes. Her platform includes significant educational reforms and drafting a new constitution to replace the one from Pinochet's era, gaining support from the Communist Party. Her main rival, Evelyn Matei, is confident of reaching a second round despite trailing by over 30 points. This election introduces voluntary voting at the presidential level, with a record nine candidates and uncertain voter turnout projections.
