According to the <g id=\"gid_0\">Associated Press<\/g>, based on the results of the vote held on December 14, Kast received 58.2% of the ballots. His opponent, Jeannette Jara, a member of the Communist Party and former labor minister, garnered 41.8%.  <\/p>\n\n<p style=\"line-height:1.2\">Kast will become Chile\u2019s first ultraconservative president in more than 35 years. His victory symbolizes the end of a long period during which the political agenda was shaped by center-left and progressive priorities: social redistribution policies, the expansion of minority rights, and experimental institutional reforms. In recent years, the country has faced rising crime, a weakening economy, inflation, and a growing sense that the state is losing its ability to perform its basic functions.  <\/p>\n\n<p style=\"line-height:1.2\">Kast built his campaign around the themes of order and security. He opposes illegal immigration, promises deportations, primarily of Venezuelan migrants, an expansion of police and military powers, and stricter border control. In his rhetoric, there is little mention of social experimentation or large-scale reforms. The emphasis is placed on security, discipline, and governability.   <\/p>\n\n<p style=\"line-height:1.2\">Kast also does not hide his attitude toward the era of Augusto Pinochet. He refers to that period as a time of order and economic discipline, emphasizing stability rather than repression. <\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-block-post-author\"><div class=\"wp-block-post-author__avatar\"><img alt='Avatar photo' src='https:\/\/www.mondevudailleurs.ae\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/cropped-Simple-Minimalist-Creative-Studio-Logo-150-x-100-px-96x96.png' srcset='https:\/\/www.mondevudailleurs.ae\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/cropped-Simple-Minimalist-Creative-Studio-Logo-150-x-100-px-192x192.png 2x' class='avatar avatar-96 photo' height='96' width='96' \/><\/div><div class=\"wp-block-post-author__content\"><p class=\"wp-block-post-author__name\">La R\u00e9daction<\/p><\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"In the second round of Chile\u2019s presidential election, ultraconservative candidate Jos\u00e9 Antonio Kast won a decisive victory.
