Green is Boric (the only good leftist here), Yellow is a centrist, and Blue and Pink are far-right essentially. Seriously can anyone explain why parisi is so popular this is devastating, he hasnt even stepped foot on Chile.

I'm curious about the voters' reasoning here. How much of it do you think was that they themselves hate/fear Venezuela and how much of it was an attempt at tactical voting, i.e. thinking about how it would affect the candidate's "electability"?
Good question of course but i dont think the "electability" factor was decisive (especially considering how massive and immediate the upset was) since 1. terminally polsci-brained political "triangulation" to find the most "electable" candidate is not nearly as big as it is in the US (and its not in the national discussion maybe only a few select very involved circles) 2. Every poll that came out before people voted showed jadue being 2x or 3x bigger than Boric (so everything suggested Jadue was the more electable candidate). 3. In a big poll people were asked to put why he lost in one word and this was the result.
Damn. Was this a poll of the general public or specifically people who would have voted in the primary?
General public but this poll exactly shows the rhetoric of the "evil communist-dictator in the making" Jadue that took over in the last days before the primary vote. really shocking
