José Antonio Kast of the Republican Party won Chile's presidential runoff with 58% of the votes, defeating left-wing candidate Jeannette Jara. The victory signals a rightward shift amid polarization over security and the economy.
Following her rally in Puente Alto, presidential candidate Jeannette Jara (PC) wrapped up her campaign at Plaza Vicuña Mackenna in Coquimbo—where she took first-round majority—with sharp attacks on José Antonio Kast's US$6 billion cuts plan as 'clandestine.' She defended social gains, vowed justice reforms, closed TAG debt and María Corina Machado controversies, amid artistic performances.
