In the early days of the runoff campaign, official candidate Jeannette Jara has adopted a confrontational tone against José Antonio Kast, driven by her advisor Darío Quiroga, creating internal divisions in her team. Ricardo Solari favors a propositive approach, while participation in Franco Parisi's program is under evaluation. Meanwhile, reinforcements like Gonzalo Winter are being added gradually.
Presidential candidate Jeannette Jara (PC) started the runoff with an aggressive strategy against her rival José Antonio Kast (Republican Party), promoted by independent sociologist Darío Quiroga, who has led the campaign since the first round. Quiroga proposes directly confronting Kast, seeking 'ammunition' to attack him, such as collusion accusations in pharmacy (2007-2008) and chicken (2008-2011) cases, involving his economic advisor Jorge Quiroz, which Kast denied.
This tactic divides the command at Londres 76. Ricardo Solari (PS), former minister and key collaborator, resists the personalistic approach and defends portraying Jara as propositive. It is the first public fissure between the two advisors. Some suggest balancing strategies: on Wednesday, Jara announced the 'Sumando Chile Cambia' plan in Cerro Navia, incorporating proposals like VAT refund on medicines from Franco Parisi (PDG), the National Oncology Plan from Evelyn Matthei (UDI), and 'sports corners' from Harold Mayne-Nicholls.
Quiroga drew internal criticism for giving interviews and calling to 'muevan la raja' in favor of Jara, but she defends him. On reinforcements, Jara downplayed delays: 'Se irá haciendo en su minuto,' confirming only Gonzalo Winter (FA) as volunteer coordinator. She invited elected parliamentarians to join, focusing on debates that Kast avoids.
In contrast, Johannes Kaiser (PNL), with 13.9% in the first round, unconditionally backs Kast and plans territorial and programmatic deployment, prioritizing the budget debate in Congress. Regarding Franco Parisi's 'Bad Boys' program (third with 20%), there is consensus that Jara will attend, with precautions against 'setups'; Carolina Tohá (PPD) sees low risk but warns of Parisi's manipulation.
