Chile's Right-Wing Parties Triumph in Vote to Draft New Constitution

Chilean voters elected a right-wing council to draft a new constitution that is expected to maintain the country's market-based economic model, dealing a blow to leftist President Gabriel Boric. The move comes after an earlier left-wing constituent assembly proposed a sweeping overhaul to Chile's political and economic system. Boric's popularity has declined over his government's handling of crime, immigration, and a weak economy, with Chile projected to be the only South American nation to post an economic decline this year.
