26 out 2020 ano - Chile scraps Pinochet-era constitution
Descrição:
A plebiscite called in response to street protests in 2019 sees 78% of people back a new charter to replace one imposed by military dictator.
Chile has voted overwhelmingly in favor of rewriting the country’s constitution to replace guiding principles imposed four decades ago under the military dictatorship of General Augusto Pinochet.
Jubilant pro-reform supporters took to the streets of the capital Santiago and other cities to celebrate on Sunday night after exit polls showed that 78.24% of people had voted to approve a rewrite, while 21.76% rejected the change.
Voters also elected for the new constitution to be entirely drafted by a popularly elected body – meaning no active lawmakers can be involved in the process. (The Guardian)
