General elections were held in Chile on 16 November 2025.[1][2] Voters went to the polls to elect the 38th president of Chile, renew all 155 seats in the Chamber of Deputies, and fill 23 of the 50 seats in the Senate. Republican Party candidate José Antonio Kast defeated Communist Party member Jeannette Jara in a runoff election on 14 December.

In the first round, Jara, a communist,[3][4][5] won a plurality of the vote.[6][7] Kast, who has been described as conservative or hard-right, placed second.[6][8] Combined, right-leaning candidates received approximately 70 percent of the first-round presidential vote.[9] Kaiser and Matthei, both candidates on the right,[5] endorsed Kast for the runoff, while Parisi declined to make an endorsement, calling on his voters to decide themselves who to vote for.[10] In the run-off, Kast defeated Jara with 58% of the vote, the second-highest percentage of the vote since Chile's transition to democracy. Kast received 7.2 million votes, which was the highest ever vote total in Chile's history. He won in all sixteen regions of the country.[11]

In the parliamentary election, Unidad por Chile, a coalition of the ruling leftist and center-left parties, emerged as the largest bloc of the Chamber of Deputies, while in the Senate, together with the far-right Change for Chile coalition, reached a tie with 25 deputies each.[12][13]

This was the first general election since the reintroduction of compulsory voting in 2022.[14]

Background

[edit]
Main article: 2021 Chilean general election

The 2021 presidential election saw left-wing candidate Gabriel Boric, a former student protest leader during the 2011–2013 student protests, defeat conservative rival José Antonio Kast in a runoff. Boric's victory was attributed to widespread youth mobilization, dissatisfaction with the center-right administration of Sebastián Piñera, and economic strains following the COVID-19 pandemic.[15] His platform emphasized social equity, feminist reforms, and a "dignified life" for marginalized groups, pledging to dismantle Chile's "patriarchal inheritance".[16][17]

By mid-2023, Boric's approval ratings had plummeted to 28%, with 66% disapproving of his administration, according to polls.[18] Analysts cited economic stagnation, legislative gridlock, and public safety concerns as primary factors. The right-wing Republican Party, led by Kast, capitalized on this discontent, securing a dominant victory in the May 2023 Constitutional Council elections, resulting in the failed 2023 Chilean constitutional referendum. Kast declared the results a mandate for "a major change in government", positioning himself as a frontrunner for 2025.[19] Meanwhile, Evelyn Matthei of the Independent Democratic Union (UDI) also gained traction in opinion polls.[20]

Electoral system

[edit]

This was the first presidential and congressional election since a constitutional amendment was passed and promulgated on 27 December 2022, restoring compulsory voting for all elections and plebiscites for the first time since 2012, except in primary elections.[21] Eligible citizens who did not vote faced a fine of approximately 33,000 pesos (around US$35).[22]

President

[edit]

The President is elected using the two-round system; if no candidate receives over 50% of the vote to win outright in the first round, a second round will be held.[23]

National Congress

[edit]
  • Chamber of Deputies: The 155 members are elected from 28 multi-member constituencies (3–8 seats each) using open-list proportional representation with the d'Hondt method.[24]
  • Senate: The 50 senators serve staggered eight-year terms. Half the chamber (25 seats) is renewed each general election, elected from 16 regional constituencies (2–5 seats each) under similar proportional rules.[25]

Seven of the following eight candidates were registered with the Electoral Service (Servel)[26] and were accepted on 29 August 2025.[27][28] Jeannette Jara, as a primary winner, was automatically registered as a candidate on 14 July 2025.[29]

Jeannette Jara, former minister, won the Unity for Chile center-left coalition's presidential primary with 60% of the vote in nationwide elections held on 29 June 2025.[30] Her candidacy was automatically registered with Servel when the Election Certification Tribunal declared her the winner on 14 July 2025.[29] The Christian Democrats (DC), who were not part of the primary coalition, decided on 26 July to join the alliance, run on a unified parliamentary list, and support Jara's presidential bid.[31] In addition to the DC, several non-official left-wing parties declared their support for Jara. However, two parties that participated in the primary—Social Green Regionalist Federation (FRVS) and Humanist Action (AH)—withdrew from the coalition on 16 August to register an independent parliamentary list named Verdes, Regionalistas y Humanistas, led by former Valparaíso mayor Jorge Sharp. While reiterating their support for Jara's presidential candidacy, FRVS and AH leaders stated that the move was intended to highlight their regionalist, environmental, and humanist agendas and to compete on equal terms in the legislative elections.[35]

José Antonio Kast, former deputy and founder of the Republican Party, was proclaimed as the party's presidential candidate on 9 January 2025, running directly in the November election without participating in any opposition primaries.[36] He received additional backing from the Christian Social Party on 19 July 2025.[37] Kast officially registered his candidacy with Servel on 18 August 2025, marking his third bid for the presidency. During his registration, he criticized what he described as a campaign of lies and defamation against him, emphasized the need for economic growth to improve pensions, and highlighted his proposals for public security, social order, and the welfare of animals.[38]

Shortly before the registration deadline in August 2025, his campaign announced it had met this requirement,[40] and he officially registered with Servel on 19 August 2025.[41]

Johannes Kaiser, deputy, was proclaimed as the presidential candidate for the National Libertarian Party (PNL) on 12 July 2025 during a ceremony at Espacio Riesco attended by around three thousand people, which included a controversial rendition of the Chilean National Anthem's third stanza.[46] Kaiser officially registered his candidacy with Servel on 14 August 2025, presenting his government program and emphasizing that he has a "solid base to start the campaign" despite pressure to withdraw and unfavorable polling results.[47]

Amarillos por Chile declared its support on 6 June.[51] Matthei formally registered her candidacy with Servel on 16 August 2025, at which time Chile Vamos and Democrats presented their joint parliamentary pact, Great and United Chile.[54] Before her official registration, Matthei held the status of pre-candidate—a term in Chile for those who announce their intention to run for office ahead of the formal registration period. This designation permits limited campaigning under Servel supervision, including the ability to receive donations and incur electoral expenses within regulated limits.[52][55]

He criticized both left- and right-wing parties for prioritizing their own interests over the middle class and expressed his goal of reaching a second-round runoff while winning parliamentary seats for his party.[59] Parisi officially registered his candidacy with Servel on 18 August 2025, asserting that "the polls are lying" and highlighting the influence of his parliamentary candidates, including deputy Pamela Jiles.[60]

Withdrawn

[edit]
  • Félix González (Green Ecologist Party), deputy for District 20 in the Biobío Region, announced his presidential bid on 6 January 2025, saying, "we have decided to collect the signatures to register an ecologist candidacy, because environmental issues are absent from the public agenda." He emphasized urgent social and climate security, adding, "we have the obligation to raise pensions... and face fires, floods, and droughts."[61] González ultimately did not register and did not appear on the November 2025 ballot.[26]
  • Vlado Mirosevic (Liberal Party, PL), deputy for District 1 in the Arica and Parinacota Region, was proclaimed his party's presidential candidate on 12 October 2024 and planned to run in the center-left primaries. But with the Liberal Party lacking national status, it needed 35,361 signatures to validate his candidacy; by 31 March, it had only 9,851 members. Mirosevic withdrew on 16 April 2025 and endorsed Carolina Tohá.[62] He denied the signature shortfall was the reason, arguing that multiple candidates from the PS, PPD, and PL risked handing victory to the Communist Party, and called Tohá the most competitive option.[63]
  • Francesca Muñoz (Christian Social Party, PSC), deputy for District 20 in the Biobío Region, was proclaimed her party's presidential candidate on 29 April 2025, following the resignation of Senator Rojo Edwards and amid a new alliance with the Republican and National Libertarian parties.[64] But on 30 June, she ended her bid and endorsed José Antonio Kast, calling the moment one that "demands brave, generous, and responsible decisions," and urging her supporters to back his candidacy.[65]
  • Ximena Rincón (Demócratas), senator for the Maule Region, was proclaimed as the party's presidential candidate on 15 March 2025.[66] The party indicated it would explore the possibility of joining a primary with other political forces, emphasizing a centrist path "far from the extremes" and aiming for broader parliamentary representation. Rincón framed her prospective campaign around dialogue and moderation, asserting that Chile could "once again be admired and respected around the world."[66] However, she ultimately did not register her candidacy with Servel and therefore did not appear on the ballot for the November 2025 election.[26]
  • Marcelo Trivelli (independent, ex-DC), former intendant of the Santiago Metropolitan Region, ended his presidential bid on 31 July 2025 after failing to gather the 36,000 signatures required to run as an independent. He acknowledged the lack of both citizen support and backing from the Christian Democratic Party, which instead endorsed Jeannette Jara. Trivelli criticized the DC for "abandoning its historic convictions" and stated he would continue working on initiatives promoting social cohesion.[67]
  • Alberto Undurraga (Christian Democratic Party, DC), deputy for District 8 and party president, formally withdrew his presidential candidacy on 10 May 2025 during a National Council meeting, following mounting internal criticism and isolation from broader center-left alliances.[68] Though previously proclaimed by the party to run in primaries, the DC's Supreme Tribunal annulled the mandate after no pact was reached and the primary deadline passed.[69] Amid growing dissent and key figures like Ignacio Walker and Genaro Arriagada endorsing Carolina Tohá, Undurraga acknowledged that internal conditions were not conducive to a viable candidacy. He cited the need to avoid damaging the party and pledged to focus on parliamentary negotiations and promoting the DC's programmatic agenda.[68]
  • Paulina Vodanovic (Socialist Party, PS), senator for the Maule Region and PS president, withdrew her presidential candidacy on 28 April 2025, just two weeks after being unanimously proclaimed by the party's central committee.[70] She cited the lack of support from other parties and the need to back a unified candidacy within the center-left, which consolidated around Carolina Tohá. Vodanovic stated that continuing her campaign would have required political conditions that did not materialize and emphasized the importance of unity against the right.[71]

Campaign

[edit]

First round

[edit]

The campaign for the general election officially began on 17 September 2025 and with eight presidential candidates, the main contest was between Jeannette Jara and José Antonio Kast.[90]

A polarising election, the campaign's main concerns were rising gang violence and migration from Venezuela, rather than traditional economic or social issues.[91][92]

Among Kast's campaign pledges were cuts to public spending and the creation of an police force against illegal migration inspired by the United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement.[93] Analysts also expected the results could pave way for more market friendly initiatives as Kast was favored to win.[94]

In general terms, right-wing and far-right parties proposed fiscal austerity measures, promotion of private investment, reduction of the state and tough security policies such as militarization, mass deportations and police defense.[95] Jara, for her part, advocated for greater state intervention, expansion of social benefits such as basic income, regulation of prices for essential services, strengthening gun control, and temporary biometric registration for immigrants.[95]

Second round

[edit]

The campaign for the second round began on 17 November.[96] Jeannette Jara started it with an event involving women in the La Pintana neighborhood of Santiago while José Antonio Kast started his campaign in the city of Temuco.[96]

Insecurity was once again the key issue of the campaign, with Jara declaring that she would strengthen the police force, lift banking secrecy in order to track down money linked to drug trafficking, and reclaim neighborhoods from criminal gangs.[96] For his part, Kast, speaking from Temuco, the capital of a region militarized since 2022 due to violence from criminal gangs, promised to deport migrants and erect a "border shield."[96]

The main televised debate between the two candidates took place on the evening of 9 December and was organized by the National Television Association (Anatel), which, according to Anatel, was watched by over seven million people.[97][98]

Throughout his campaign, Kast used bulletproof glass at his rallies, a fact that was criticized by Jara.[99]

President

[edit]

First round

[edit]

No candidate obtained the required majority to win the presidency outright. As a result, the election proceeded to a runoff between Jeannette Jara and José Antonio Kast on 14 December 2025.[139]

Jeannette Jara won the first round with 26.58% of the votes, followed closely by José Antonio Kast with 23.92%.[140]

Third place went to Franco Parisi, who obtained 19.71% of the votes and achieved a surprising result, given that the polls had given him less than 10%.[10] Johannes Kaiser obtained 13.94% of the votes, and fifth place went to Evelyn Matthei, who obtained 12.46% of the votes, marking the most significant defeat as she was expected to come in third and had even been leading the polls for several months.[140][141] The other candidates received less than 5% of the votes.[10]

Second round

[edit]

In his third attempt to become president of Chile, José Antonio Kast won the second round with 58% of the votes cast, marking the most significant shift to the right since the end of the Pinochet dictatorship.[142] He received the second-highest percentage of the vote since Chile's transition to democracy. Kast received 7.2 million votes, the highest ever vote total in Chile's history. He won all regions of the country, with Jara only winning the overseas vote.[11][143]

Senate

[edit]

In the Senate, 23 seats were renewed. The election maintained the overall ideological balance seen in 2021, with right-leaning and left-leaning parties each controlling 25 seats when counting independents. The main changes were internal to each bloc: Unidad por Chile unified the former center-left and left coalitions without altering their combined seat total, while the right experienced a shift in influence as the Republican Party expanded and the Independent Democratic Union declined.[13][144]

Reactions and aftermath

[edit]

First round

[edit]

Matthei was the first to make a statement after the results were announced, accepting defeat and pledging her support for Kast in the second round.[145][146] Kaiser also called for people to vote for Kast in the second round.[146] President Boric congratulated the winners and called for “a debate with high standards.”[146]

Second round

[edit]

In keeping with tradition, outgoing President Gabriel Boric congratulated President-elect Kast on his victory during a televised phone call.[147] Kast thanked him for his congratulations and expressed his desire for a "very orderly and respectful" transition, also hoping to hear Boric's views on the country once he assumes the presidency on 11 March 2026.[148]

In his first speech as president-elect, Kast stated that "it wasn't one person who won here, Chile won," and when some members of the audience booed Jara's name, he demanded respect and silence, adding that "she took on a very difficult challenge and gave it her all in her own style until the end, and that, at least for me, is something I value."[149]

Jara personally congratulated Kast after his victory.[150] In her following public statement, Jara acknowledged defeat and expressed her support for the president-elect "in everything that is good for Chile."[150] Kast received a visit from Jara that night at campaign headquarters.[151][152]

Kast was congratulated by several international leaders, including Argentine President Javier Milei, Paraguayan President Santiago Peña, Ecuadorian President Daniel Noboa, Bolivian President Rodrigo Paz, Costa Rican President Rodrigo Chaves, Brazilian President Lula da Silva, Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum as well as U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio, former Colombian President Iván Duque and former Ecuadorian President Guillermo Lasso.[153][154] He was also congratuled by Spanish politician and leader of the Vox party Santiago Abascal, Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez and by Alberto Núñez Feijóo.[155]

Colombian President Gustavo Petro criticized Kast's election harshly, stating “Fascism is advancing. I will never shake hands with a Nazi, nor with the son of a Nazi;[a] they are death incarnate. It's sad that Pinochet had to impose himself by force, but it's even sadder now that people are choosing their own Pinochet.”[156] The Chilean government responded to Petro's statements, rejecting them and deciding to file a formal protest.[157]

The Mapuche Political Platform issued a statement stating that the electoral results "not only signify an electoral defeat for the country’s progressive and indigenous forces but also a cultural defeat".[158]

The following day, on 15 December, President Boric and Kast held a meeting at the Palacio de la Moneda to prepare for the transfer of power.[159]

Parliamentary election

[edit]

After failing to reach the minimum legal threshold of votes, at least 13 candidate political parties may dissolve in the coming months, including the Radical Party of Chile, which has already begun dissolution proceedings after 167 years of history and several elected presidents, Evópoli, and the Social Green Regionalist Federation.[160]
