Hello my fellas, in this day I'm going
to talk about an article from the Guardian, an English news portal...
I choose news about the elections in Chile, with the results of this: The election of student leaders.
I choose news about the elections in Chile, with the results of this: The election of student leaders.
In this Sunday,
the elections in Chile are choosing a president, congress members and regional
counsellors; but the elections of the congress members had a surprise: Four ex-student leaders of the student movement in 2011 are elected. The new
congress members are Camila Vallejos, Karol Cariola, Giorgio Jackson and
Gabriel Boric.
Camila Vallejos
is elected by the district of La Florida, in the Metropolitan Region, with a majority
in the votes, being the 1st majority in her district. She was the president of the
Universidad de Chile's Students Federation (FECh) in 2010/2011 she represents the Communist
Party, who have a coalition with other parties, making the Nueva Mayoría coalition,
the parties of the left side of the politics in Chile. She said "We're
going to celebrate in the streets of La Florida", like a representative
act for the people who choose her.
Another case is
Giorgio Jackson, who is elected by the district of Santiago Centro, in the
Metropolitan Region, with a majority in the votes, like Camila Vallejos. He was
the president of the Universidad Catolica's Students Federation (FEUC) in 2010/2011. He doesn’t
have any representation of any party, he's an independent, but he represents
the same coalition of Camila, the Nueva Mayoría coalition. He had found the
votes of the students and young people to represent in the congress, and he
made it.
In other case, in
the Metropolitan Region too, is Karol Cariola. She is a Communist Party member,
like Camila Vallejos, and she was the president of the Universidad de
Concepcion's Students Federation (FEUdeC) in 2010/2011. She is elected by the district of
Recoleta, Independencia and Conchali, in the Metropolitan Region. She
represents the Nueva Mayoría coalition too.
However, a
particular situation is lived in Punta Arenas, in the Austral Region of
Magallanes, in the South of Chile; because the candidate Gabriel Boric, an
ex-president of the Universidad de Chile's Students Federation (FECh) in 2011/2012, is elected in the district of Punta Arenas with the 1st place in votes. He's an
independent candidate and he doesn't have any coalition, he was choosing
without no political helps and favors, breaking the pronostics.
This 4th cases are
a signal of a new age of the politics in Chile, is the representation of the
new faces and the unhappy people who don't believe in the old politics and his
members; it's the evidence of the renovation.
Well, that's all
my fellas. See this news in http://www.theguardian.com/world/2013/nov/18/chilean-student-leader-camila-vallejo-congress-bachelet-election
