YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Chile is set for a run-off presidential vote next month, after Sunday's election failed to establish a clear winner. While vote counting is still underway, early results put leftist Jeannette Jara of the Communist Party narrowly ahead of the hard-right José Antonio Kast of the Republican Party. Neither candidate managed to secure 50% of votes, which is needed to claim victory. The election campaign was dominated by concerns over rising crime and immigration in Chile, with calls from the right for mass deportations. Speaking to supporters after polls closed, Jeanette Jara criticised her right wing opponents' fear-based campaigns.
