3:04 am
each well proposed for the country of his father sees they're afraid they're going to try to move the country away too far to the last. they are also quite afraid by the fact that the communist party is part of is a coalition. and if you talk to the people here that they'll tell you that they, they fear that this cancer could turn in other venezuela or another. cuba just drastically changing that way. the country has as it's actually progressed in the, in the last few that that cuz we're gonna have to see if that indeed is the case. ok. thank you. allison, the ramp, yet he reporting from santiago, also joining us in san sierra. gonna fernando rosenblatt, who is an associate professor of political science at chillies at diego portales university. thank you for your time, sir. this was supposed to be a lot closer. wilson it, i mean i said as a said to alice under the concession came so fast and it seems to be a pretty solid victory. a year during the last week we expected
3:05 am
a my a much tighter we fall, but in the end it was more than 10 percentage points of difference between the the winning candidate got ill bought each uncle sam daniel cast em. i mean in fury, this is the result that we should have expected tighter. there are a tighter res was in some sort in opposition to what fury could have told. tell us about the results, right? we're just looking at live pictures as well. uh, we're waiting for mr. pottage to come out. i mean, there just seems to be, i know it's his rally, but there seems to be a great level of excitement that surrounds the man. yes. that those are grade level of of excitement. the said simon was seen during the last week. it was, it is the, the most consequential election in chiller scenes the, the election after the authoritarian regime that runs the, the 1st name already an action after that been show the regime or why? because we are coming from the social unrest in 2019 and we are in the process of
3:06 am
the constitutional reform and it in, in the iran of election. you had 2 very different, candid from the opposite side of the electrical spectrum, the left east and guardian voltage would turn out the winner in the electron ankles, antonio gas from the far right. so it was, it was a very polarized selection, and it was a critical election regarding, as especially the, the constitutional process that she lays on there going right now. so at, let's move that forward there because for any president to get anything done, they need support. does mr. bowditch have any more support in the chiller in congress that he can leverage now? well, that, that's a key question right. when we have right now is a very divided congress in what each only has a slight majority in the house, but the senate east. absolutely. and divided between the right on the left or the
3:07 am
center, right on the central left. so he, he will have to negotiate with different it with the friend calico says in order to, to advance, he said gender. and we have to remember that we are coming from the social unrest in which many demands were on the streets for a new health health system, a pension reform, et cetera. and, and he and, and he, most of he, for much of his agenda is about transforming chill into a social welfare state. right. but the thing is that for, for that to come true, he needs the supporting congress, which in the beginning he doesn't house. so 1st he, he needs to build a governing coalition with the old, a former comes out of the scene of the center left on the center bar thief. he know that to, to get at least to the 50 percent of the congress. great to talk here. fernando rosenblatt from the diego portales university in santiago. thank you for your time
3:08 am
. now. our latin america editor, lucille newman, out on the streets of santiago with gabrielle bowditch, is expected to address the nation. we were looking at pictures. there. looks like a huge crowd. the i think that that is an understatement. i can tell you how many people are here, but tens of thousands at the very, very nice, not just behind me, but all the way up the avenue to my left and down the avenue to my right, which is the largest largest thoroughfare that crosses all up some saddle, people are absolutely horrid, as you can see. they've been here now for at least 2 hours. people just have been dreaming here, waiting for their bodies to address the nation and address them. they are their children, mothers, fathers, the older people, but especially a lot of a lot of the young people who to a certain degree believe that it's one of them that is finally now going to be the
3:09 am
president of chile. interestingly, add up just an hour or shortly after an hour after i be post clothes, the other contender will san phone your past the right handed. it actually pulls the bodies and graduated him for his victory. and shortly after that, the president printed out. also clearly a host produced voted on his plans for the future for this country, also called bodies to congratulate him. this is very much in keeping with tradition here. and that tradition, despite the incredible differences between both groups. i know that that tradition certainly have not been destroyed. it seems to be intact with me that perhaps tomorrow morning president of us going to get a vote to visit that in order to have breakfast with him, which is also another good dish in here to explain how they will guarantee a smooth transition from one government to the other in march,
3:10 am
let's see what's your take on the actual margin of victory here it seems to be so comfortable for gabrielle about it when all the indications were be the exact opposite absolute day. it's been the biggest surprise and i've spoken to a lot of people including his camp. they really can't explain it yet. they're waiting for the details of the vote to be to be filtered to be distill. well, we do know that at least between 10 and 15 percent more people voted in this 2nd round that in the 1st round. but he won 12 percent more votes on the 13 percent more vote for the 2nd round. but he did in the 1st, but different 11 comfortable percentage points with a, with hands on your past. when, when this victory now the most comes from who are they were not quite sure yet, but i would think that it means that
3:11 am
a lot of very young people who didn't vote in the 1st round decided to do so. this time when they saw what was a thing that their country would go either in one direction or at a very, very different one that perhaps they did not want. if they did not go to the valid ball this year, what do you think happens to the antonio cops now? of course he said, and it's all been very cordial. we. we accept that way. he can seed and he supports the new president, but he now has a job to do with an opposition leader. absolutely, and i think he will be fierce. i'll put the opposition leader who he is a man who has shown that he has a lot of support behind him. he is a man who speaks well, he has laid out his platform, his principal. he mentioned the fact that he's going to now do everything he can to defend those principles. and he's talking about conservative family value principles among other things. but also that he will do everything he can to ensure
3:12 am
that the new to the new constitution which is being written at this very moment been which has to be put before 11 side in july. i referendum in july. i did not do his like, hey, so that invoice has a lot of opposition that he will be facing rather opposition, not just from past, but also in congress because he does not hold a majority in either house. thank you. let's see if an hour good. we'll be back with you later on after we hear from gabrielle birch look at the crowd, stare in santiago in front of the stage there, and that's just close to the sage as lucille was saying, a stretch right back down the avenue. in santiago, the podium is there ready for gabrielle bartch to arrive and address the crowd. and we will bring that to you as soon as it happens
